Born in Coimbra, Amaro played for Naval 1º de Maio and hometown club Académica de Coimbra before joining Vitória SC. After playing for the reserve team in the third tier, he made his first-team debut on 21 December 2020 as an 85th-minute substitute for Pepelu in a 4–0 Primeira Liga win at Santa Clara.[1] He totalled 12 appearances over the season, scoring once to open a 2–0 derby win at home to Moreirense on 30 April.[2] A month later, his contract was updated from one expiring in 2023 with a buyout clause of €30 million, to one lasting until 2025 with the clause set at €50 million.[3]

On 9 August 2023, Amaro signed with Qatar Stars League side Al-Rayyan,[4] for a reported fee of €8.5 million, potentially rising to €10 million through future add-ons.[5]
