Career
Born in Lisbon, Morais started is youth development at Ginásio Corroios at age 10, joining the larger Benfica in 1988. In 1992, he joined Gil Vicente, debuting for the Gilistas on 30 August 1992, in a home loss against S.C. Braga.[1] In the two seasons he sent in Barcelos, he was mainly a reserve player, representing them in only 15 league games.
In 1994-95 season, he joined U.D. Leiria, playing just 3 games, only one as starter. For the next seasons, Morais dropped down to the second tier, joining F.C. Alverca and becoming an undisputed starter, adding nearly 90 caps in the three seasons the team spent in the second tier.[2]
Acting as a farm team for Benfica, he represented the Reds on one occasion, a 0–2 home loss against Vitória S.C. on 30 May 1997.[3]
In 1998, he was loaned out to S.C. Campomaiorense, starting one match, a 0–5 home trashing by Benfica, on 29 November 1998.[4] He returned to Alverca in January 1999, but did not have the same influence as before, with Valente and later Gaspar Azevedo being preferred choices.[5]
Morais left Alverca in 2001 and played the last two seasons of his career in the third tier, at Seixal
International career
Morais earned 33 caps for Portugal from under-17 to under-21 level, representing Portugal U20 in the 1993 FIFA U20.[6]
