Pedro Miguel da Cunha e Sá (born 1 December 1993) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1 club CS Sfaxien.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Póvoa de Varzim, Sá joined hometown club Varzim SC's youth ranks at the age of 9. He made his senior debut with eight games in the third division in 2012–13, and played regularly in the next three seasons, the last of which in Segunda Liga; he also appeared in two matches for their reserves in the Porto Football Association's first district league.

Ahead of the 2016–17 campaign, Sá signed with Portimonense S.C. of the same league[2]– in July 2018, a court in Póvoa de Varzim ordered his previous club to pay some of the transfer fee to his agents, Foot Emotions.[3] The team from the Algarve won promotion in his first year, as champions.[4]

Sá made his Primeira Liga debut on 7 August 2017, playing the entire 2–1 home win against Boavista FC.[5] He added a further 27 appearances during the season, scoring in a 3–3 draw at Vitória S.C. on 23 October.[6]

In January 2019, Sá signed a new contract lasting until 2023, with a buyout clause of €30 million.[7] He injured his elbow in December of the following year, requiring surgery;[8] in one of his first games back on 20 March 2021 he was sent off at the end of a 2–1 home loss to FC Porto.[9] That 6 November, he scored his first league goal for over four years, concluding a 2–0 victory over B-SAD also at the Estádio Municipal de Portimão.[10]

On 30 June 2023, Sá joined recently-promoted C.F. Estrela da Amadora on a two-year deal as a free agent.[11] The 30-year-old moved abroad for the first time in July 2024, joining Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1 side CS Sfaxien until June 2026.[12]
