Club career


Born in Oliveira do Bairro, Aveiro District, Fernandes spent his first three years as a senior in the third division. In July 2016, he signed with Segunda Liga club AD Fafe on loan from C.F. Os Belenenses, making his debut as a professional on 31 July of that month in a 0–1 home loss against F.C. Vizela in the first stage of the Portuguese League Cup. His maiden league appearance took place on 28 November, when he kept a clean sheet to help the visitors defeat S.L. Benfica B 1–0.
Fernandes returned to the Estádio do Restelo for the 2017–18 season, where he acted as third or fourth choice. He made his Primeira Liga debut on 12 May 2018, coming on as a substitute for Muriel in the last nine minutes of the 1–0 away defeat to Boavista F.C. in the last matchday.
On 22 May 2018, Fernandes dropped into the second tier on a two-year contract at F.C. Famalicão. He was back-up to Rafael Defendi as the team won promotion as runners-up, moving on to Académico de Viseu FC; on his first of three appearances in his debut campaign for the latter on 22 December 2019, he was sent off for a foul on Mohamed Bouldini.
Fernandes took the starting spot from Ricardo Janota in his second season in Viseu. At its conclusion, he signed a three-year deal at top-flight C.D. Santa Clara on 23 June 2021.
