Benfica

Nazareth made her senior debut for Benfica at the age of 16 and signed her first professional contract with the club on 7 October 2020, at the age of 17. On the 2023–24 season, Nazareth was part of the historic Benfica team that won all four domestic competitions: the Supertaça de Portugal, the Taça da Liga, the Campeonato Nacional, and the Taça de Portugal. Nazareth was forced to miss two months of play after sustaining an injury in early January 2024. She returned in March and quickly took back her spot in the starting lineup.

Barcelona

On 4 July 2024, Nazareth completed a move to Liga F side FC Barcelona for €500,000, a record fee for the women's football in Portugal. She made her official debut in a 3–0 win against Deportivo de La Coruña in early September, and scored her first league goal for the club in a 4–1 win over Levante in late October.

Nazareth made her debut for the Portugal national team on 4 March 2020, coming on as a substitute for Carolina Mendes in the 2020 Algarve Cup. She scored her first and second goals for the Portugal national team on 22 June 2022 in a 4–0 friendly win against Greece. On 30 May 2023, she was included in the 23-player squad for the 2023 World Cup. During the tournament, she became the youngest-ever player to score for Portugal in a World Cup, breaking a record previously set in 2006 by Cristiano Ronaldo. On 24 June 2025, Nazareth was called up to the Portugal squad for the 2025 Euro. She had not played since March, having suffered an ankle injury requiring surgery. At the tournament, Nazareth played two group-stage matches, but did not manage to contribute with any goals or assists. The Portuguese team were eliminated in the group stage after collecting only one point in three matches, suffering losses to both Spain and Belgium, and drawing against Italy.
