Club career

Paços Ferreira

Born in Foz do Sousa, Gondomar, Porto District, António Filipe began his career with hometown club Gondomar S.C. in Segunda Liga. In August 2009, following their relegation, he signed a four-year contract with F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[1] Almost exclusively a backup during his spell at the Estádio da Mata Real,[2] he made his Primeira Liga debut on 12 September 2010 when starter Cássio was sent off shortly before the hour-mark of the 1–1 away draw against C.S. Marítimo.[3]

Chaves

On 26 June 2015, António Filipe agreed to a one-year deal at second-tier G.D. Chaves.[4] He played a career-best 30 matches (31 overall) in his first season, which ended in promotion, and then extended his link for another year.[5]

In 2017, António Filipe renewed his contract until 30 June 2019.[6] During his tenure, he constantly battled for first-choice status with Ricardo Nunes.[7]

Estoril

Aged 34, António Filipe joined G.D. Estoril Praia on a one-year deal on 6 June 2019.[8]
