After the signing of Fernando Cardinal, Tiago Fernandes is the second new face in FC Porto’s recently created futsal team, which will compete in the National Third Division Championship in 2026/27. The left winger is known in futsal as Tiaguinho.
At 28 years old, the five-time Portugal international, born in Matosinhos, began his youth development at GDC Cohaemato, in Leça da Palmeira. In 2014, when he was just 16, he joined Benfica and, that same year, became the youngest player ever to represent the Eagles’ first team.
After three seasons with the Lisbon club, he continued his senior career at SC Braga. Spells at AD Modicus Sandim, CRC Quinta dos Lombos and ADCR Caxinas followed, before moving to Italy. Over the last two seasons, Tiaguinho played 53 matches and scored 12 goals for Fortitudo Pomezia in Italy’s Serie A. He now returns to Portugal to strengthen FC Porto, where he will once again be a teammate of Fernando Cardinal, under the management of André Pereira.
