Sporting CP
Born in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau, Bruma moved to Portugal as a child, joining Sporting CP's academy before his 13th birthday. He proceeded to score more than 80 goals for the club's various youth sides. Bruma made his senior debut in the 2012–13 season, starting with the B team in the Segunda Liga. On 6 December 2012 he netted twice against União da Madeira, but was also sent off in the 3–2 away loss. On 10 February 2013, at the age of 18, Bruma made his official debut with the Lions' main squad, playing the first half of the 0–1 home defeat against Marítimo. He scored his first Primeira Liga goal the following matchday, the first in a 3–2 win at Gil Vicente.
Galatasaray
On 3 September 2013, following a lengthy and sour contract dispute with Sporting, ultimately resolved in the club's favour, Bruma signed a five-year deal with Turkish giants Galatasaray for €10 million. He made his debut ten days later against Antalyaspor, coming on as a substitute in the 1–1 draw.
Bruma made his maiden UEFA Champions League appearance on 17 September 2013, playing roughly 30 minutes in a 1–6 home loss to Real Madrid in the group stage. He made his first assist for his new club in a local derby against Beşiktaş, a 2–1 away victory, and scored his first goal against Balıkesirspor on 18 December, in a 4–0 win in the campaign's Turkish Cup. On 15 January 2014, also in the domestic cup but against Tokatspor, Bruma suffered a serious knee injury and was sidelined for…
Still aged 18, Bruma was part of the Portugal under-20 side that competed in the 2013 FIFA World Cup in Turkey. He was awarded the Silver Shoe as second top scorer of the tournament, scoring five times in four games in an eventual round-of-16 exit. Bruma played his first game for the under-21s on 10 October 2013, 14 days shy of his 19th birthday, and he netted the second from a close-range header in an eventual 3–0 home win against Israel for the 2015 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifiers. Just two days later he was called by full side manager Paulo Bento, replacing suspended Cristiano Ronaldo for the last 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Luxembourg. Bruma won his first full cap on 10 November 2017, coming on for Gonçalo Guedes for the last 15 minutes of the 3–0 friendly victory over Saudi Arabia in Viseu. He scored his first goal the following 14 October in another exhibition game, helping to a 3–1 defeat of Scotland at Hampden Park. On 10 November 2023, almost four years since his last appearance, new coach Roberto Martínez called Bruma for Euro 2024 qualifiers against Liechtenstein and Iceland. Six days later, he came off the bench for Ronaldo in the 67th minute of a 2–0 win at the former.
