Club career

Born in Alcobaça, Leiria District, Traquina finished his formation with Académica de Coimbra. He played lower league football until the age of 25, with G.D. Tourizense (two spells),[1] F.C. Pampilhosa, Sertanense FC, AD Fafe,[2] Associação Naval 1º de Maio[1] and Sertanense FC; he was part of G.D. Estoril Praia's Segunda Liga roster in the first part of the 2009–10 season, but failed to appear for the club.

In May 2014, Traquina signed for S.C. Covilhã in the second level.[3] He made his debut in the competition on 9 August, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 away draw against Portimonense SC.[4]

gollark: So what do you actually hope to gain by confusingly and quite noticeably refusing to mention the existence of esoserver?
gollark: As far as I know most discussion and invitation to esoserver happened over DMs anyway.
gollark: You're quite literally metaphorically acting like a repressive authoritarian government (I mean, not torturing people and such, but denying the existence of opposition, thinking you're the only one who can save the people from themselves, censoring anything (invites) which *might be* opposition), except with less power since you can't stop people directly communicating with each other.
gollark: That would probably not have helped.
gollark: Olivia left, but they were on there a bit.
