Leiria on 13 September 2009 where he featured the full 90 minutes.

Pinto was sold to Superleague Greece side Panathinaikos F.C. in the 2012 summer, making 22 competitive appearances in his first and only campaign. He returned to his homeland in January 2014, signing with S.C. Braga and being initially assigned to the reserves.
