Football career

Born in Ribeira Grande in the Azores, Cardoso began his career at local C.D. Santa Clara, being loaned to amateurs Águia CD before being an unused substitute in March 2016. He made his professional debut on 12 May 2018 on the final day of the LigaPro season, as a last-minute replacement for Serginho.[1]

Cardoso spent the first half of 2019–20 on loan at Louletano D.C. in the Campeonato de Portugal.[2] His only appearance for the Algarvean team was on 8 September, in a 1–0 win over F.C. Ferreiras in the first round of the Taça de Portugal.

On 14 July 2020, Cardoso was given his Primeira Liga debut in a 3–0 home win over C.D. Aves, again in the last moments in place of André Ferreira. In September, his contract was extended for three more years.[3]
