Club career
Born in Tarrafal, Celestino spent six years at Sporting CP (formative years included), but never appeared officially for the first team. He spent his first season as a professional with C.D. Olivais e Moscavide, on loan, being relegated from the Segunda Liga.[2]
For 2007–08, also on loan, Celestino joined G.D. Estoril Praia[3][2] but, in January 2008, still owned by Sporting, moved to another side in the Lisbon region, C.F. Estrela da Amadora.[4] He made his competitive debut on the 20th, starting in a 1–0 home win against S.C. Braga in the Taça de Portugal,[5] and played his first Primeira Liga match the following week, featuring the second half of the 1–1 draw at Associação Naval 1º de Maio.[6]
Celestino suffered top-flight relegation with Estrela in the following campaign, due to irregularities.[7] He met the same fate with his following club, C.F. Os Belenenses, but only due to sporting factors this time.[8]
On 16 August 2011, Celestino signed a three-year contract with CFR Cluj in Romania.[9] He returned to Portugal subsequently, going on to represent S.C. Olhanense[10] and Atlético Clube de Portugal.[11]
On 7 February 2019, Celestino agreed to a deal at FC Farul Constanța, moving to the Liga II side alongside compatriots João Diogo and Diogo Rosado.[12]
International career
Celestino earned seven caps for the Portugal under-21 team. His debut occurred on 16 October 2007, as he played the entire 2–1 away victory over Montenegro in the 2009 UEFA European Championship qualifiers and provided the assist for Tiago Targino's winning goal.[13]
