Dantas was born on 24 December 2000 in Lisbon, Portugal. In August 2018, he made his professional debut with Benfica B.[2] Half a year later, he reached the first team in a match against Vitória de Setúbal for the Portuguese Cup.[3]

In October 2020, he moved to Bayern Munich on loan. Bayern decided not to pay the buyout, and the player returned to Benfica. Dantas was then loaned to Tondela for the 2021–22 Primeira Liga.

On 24 July 2023, Eredivisie side AZ Alkmaar announced the signing of Dantas from Benfica on a season-long loan with a future option to buy.[5]
