Hélder Tiago Pinto Moura Guedes (born 7 May 1987) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Vitória F.C. as a forward.

Club career

Penafiel

Born in Penafiel, Guedes played most of his career with hometown's F.C. Penafiel, mostly in the Segunda Liga. In 2008–09 he was loaned to F.C. Paços de Ferreira of the Primeira Liga, but his input during the season consisted of one match (30 minutes).[2]

Guedes scored eight goals in 38 games in 2013–14, as Penafiel returned to the top division after a lengthy absence. He repeated the feat the following campaign (in seven appearances less), with the club being immediately relegated.

Rio Ave

On 29 June 2015, Guedes signed a three-year contract with Rio Ave FC.[3] He scored on his competitive debut for his new team, coming on as a 70th-minute substitute in a 3–3 away draw against C.F. Os Belenenses on 15 August.[4]

Guedes netted ten times in 2017–18, helping to a sixth-place finish and qualification for the second qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League.[5]

Vitória Setúbal

Guedes joined Vitória F.C. on a two-year deal in the summer of 2019, after half a season in the UAE Pro-League with Al Dhafra FC.[6][7]

Personal life

Guedes' father, José, was also a footballer and a forward. In an 11-year career, he amassed top division totals of 63 matches and eight goals in representation of four teams. He died on 16 April 1997 at the age of 34, when his son was nine years old.
