Club career

[edit]

Vitória Setúbal

[edit]

Born in Gâmbia – Pontes – Alto da Guerra, Setúbal, Venâncio joined local Vitória FC's youth academy at the age of 9, then returned for his last year as a junior from S.L. Benfica. He made his Primeira Liga debut for the former club on 13 January 2013, coming on as a late substitute in a 5–0 home win against Moreirense FC.[2] He scored his first league goal on 7 April of the same year, but in a 2–1 away loss to Rio Ave FC.[3]

On 16 August 2017, Venâncio signed with English Championship side Sheffield Wednesday on a season-long loan.[4] He made his league debut on 23 December, playing the full 90 minutes in the 1–2 home defeat against Middlesbrough.[5]

Venâncio scored his only goal for Wednesday on 6 May 2018, helping the hosts to defeat Norwich City 5–1.[6]

Vitória Guimarães

[edit]

Venâncio signed a four-year contract with Vitória S.C. on 7 July 2018.[7] A reserve player under Luís Castro in his first year,[8] he became first choice after Ivo Vieira took over.[9]

On 4 October 2020, Venâncio was loaned to Spanish Segunda División club CD Lugo for one year.[10] He scored in 2–2 draws against Málaga CF (away)[11] and Real Zaragoza (home),[12] barely avoiding relegation after finishing 18th.[13]

Eibar

[edit]

On 6 July 2021, Venâncio joined SD Eibar of the same country and league on a three-year deal.[14] He reached the La Liga play-offs with his team in 2022 and 2024, being eliminated in the semi-finals on both occasions.[15][16]

Later career

[edit]

Venâncio returned to the Portuguese top tier in summer 2024, agreeing to a two-year contract at newly promoted C.D. Santa Clara as a free agent.[17]

International career

[edit]

Venâncio earned the first of his two caps for the Portugal under-21 team on 25 March 2013, featuring the last minutes of the 2–1 friendly defeat of the Republic of Ireland in Dundalk.[18] He was part of the squad at the 2015 UEFA European Under-21 Championship,[19] being an unused squad member for the runners-up.[20]
