Club career

Sporting / Portimonense

Born in Viana do Castelo, Felgueiras joined Sporting Clube de Portugal's youth system in 2002 at the age of 15, from local SC Vianense.[1] In early 2003, following an injury to regular starter Nélson Pereira, he was called to the first team for training,[2] but he only managed to be called up for a competitive game during his tenure, remaining an unused substitute against Gil Vicente F.C. on 29 August 2004.[3]

In the 2005 summer, Felgueiras was loaned to S.C. Espinho in the third division for two years, being first-choice in his second season. Subsequently he was released by the Lisbon side, signing a two-year contract with Portimonense SC in the second level;[4][5] he kept consecutive clean sheets in his first two official matches with his new club.[6]

Braga

For the 2008–09 campaign Felgueiras returned to the Primeira Liga, joining S.C. Braga as a free agent on a 4+1 deal.[7] He only appeared in one game in his first year, ten minutes of a 1–1 draw at league champions FC Porto in the last matchday.

In 2009–10 Felgueiras was loaned to another top flight club, Vitória de Setúbal.[8] In July 2010 he returned to Braga,[9] appearing in both legs of the 4–2 aggregate win against Celtic F.C. for the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League;[10][11] however, he was soon deemed surplus to requirements and made way for another Brazilian (Felipe, the 17th in the squad), leaving for Rio Ave F.C. until the end of the season[12]– his official debut came in the league opener, a 0–1 home loss against C.D. Nacional.

Romania

Felgueiras was loaned by Braga to Romanian club FC Brașov for the 2011–12 campaign.[13] The following year, after cutting all ties with the former, he agreed to a four-year contract with CFR Cluj also in Liga I,[14] making his debut in the competition with his new team on 5 August in 3–0 home win over FC Vaslui.[15]

On 19 September 2012 Felgueiras put on a Man of the match performance against former side Braga, in a 2–0 Champions League group stage away win, being subsequently selected for the Team of the Round.[16][17] In the same competition, he was also in goal to help to a 1–0 triumph over Manchester United at Old Trafford,[18] being subsequently linked to Premier League's Everton as a backup to Tim Howard and commenting: "Any player would be interested in playing in the Premier League. I am very happy to hear about Everton's interest, but I will only think about leaving at the end of the season";[19] he also claimed that Portugal manager Paulo Bento "has been paying attention" to his performance,[20] and that Sporting and S.L. Benfica had reportedly shown interest in acquiring his services.[21]

Felgueiras received the first red card of his Romanian career (second overall) on 27 July 2013, in a 2–2 home draw against ACS Poli Timișoara.[22] In November, as Cluj was facing a financial crisis, he and other players boycotted a league match;[23] in total, he appeared in 100 games for the club all competitions comprised.[24]

Konyaspor

On 2 February 2015 Felgueiras signed for Turkey's Konyaspor, for three 1/2-years and 800.000.[25] He made his debut ten days later, in a cup match against Galatasaray SK which ended with a 1–4 away loss.[26]

International career

On 8 February 2005, still a junior, Felgueiras made his first and only appearance for the Portuguese under-21 team, playing 13 minutes in a 2–0 friendly win over the Republic of Ireland.[27]
