Sérgio Manuel Fernandes da Conceição (born 12 November 1996) is a Portuguese footballer who plays as a right-back for Anorthosis.

Having played in the lower leagues until he was 23, he represented Académica de Coimbra, Estrela da Amadora and Feirense in the second tier and Portimonense in the Primeira Liga, as well as a brief spell in the Belgian Pro League with Seraing.

Football career

[edit]

Born in Porto, Conceição played for several clubs in the Portuguese third tier, including the reserve team of Chaves in January 2019.[1] On 2 July that year, he signed for Académica de Coimbra, where he had played as a youth in 2013.[2]

On 28 December 2019, 23-year-old Conceição made his professional debut for Académica in LigaPro as they won 4–3 at home to Oliveirense. He started the game and was substituted for Hugo Almeida with ten minutes to play.[3]

Having made just one more appearance in Coimbra, Conceição left on 20 August 2020 for Estrela da Amadora on a one-year contract, with the club back in the third tier following a merger.[4] In his first season, the club won promotion but lost the final in extra time to Trofense.[5] In 2021–22, he played 29 games as they kept their place in the second division, scoring his first three goals at that level starting with one in a 6–3 home loss to Benfica B on 29 November;[6] two weeks later he struck the only goal from the penalty spot in a win over second-placed neighbours Casa Pia.[7]

On 29 June 2022, Conceição moved abroad for the first time as a professional, signing for Belgian First Division A club RFC Seraing. He had lived in nearby Liège as a child, while his father played for Standard Liège.[8]

Conceição joined Portimonense of the Primeira Liga on a one-and-a-half-year contract with an option for an additional year, on 1 February 2023.[9] He made his debut in the division on 11 March in a 2–0 loss at Chaves, as a 78th-minute substitute for Fahd Moufi.[10]

On 31 July 2023, Liga Portugal 2 side Feirense announced the signing of Conceição.[11]

Personal life

[edit]

Conceição is the eldest of five sons of former Portugal international footballer and current manager Sérgio Conceição. All of the first four embarked on careers in the sport, including Rodrigo and Francisco.[12]
