Club career

[edit]

Sporting CP

[edit]

Born in Bissau, Conté joined the youth academy of Sporting CP at the age of 13, from Sport Futebol Damaiense.[2] He made his senior debut with the former's reserves on 7 January 2017 while still a junior, playing the second half of the 1–2 home loss against Braga B in the LigaPro.[3]

Conté finished the 2017–18 season with 24 matches – 17 starts – as his team suffered relegation as third from the bottom. He also appeared for the under-23s before his departure.[4]

Moreirense

[edit]

On 22 July 2019, Conté signed with Primeira Liga club Moreirense on a four-year contract.[5] He made his debut in the competition on 23 August, playing the entire 0–0 away draw against Vitória de Setúbal.[6]

Conté totalled 67 appearances during his spell at the Parque de Jogos Comendador Joaquim de Almeida Freitas, providing seven assists.[7]

Troyes

[edit]

On 12 January 2022, Conté joined Troyes of the French Ligue 1 on a four-and-a-half-year deal.[8] He scored his first goal as a senior on 9 October, but in a 3–2 loss at Nice.[9]

In the 2023–24 campaign, Conté's side only managed to remain in Ligue 2 as Bordeaux were relegated due to bankruptcy.[10] In the summer, he was loaned to Swiss Super League champions Young Boys.[11]

International career

[edit]

Born in Guinea-Bissau, Conté represented Portugal at youth level.[12][13] He was called by under-21 manager Rui Jorge for the second stage of the 2021 UEFA European Championship in May after Thierry Correia tested positive for COVID-19,[14] earning his first cap on 3 June by featuring 90 minutes in a 1–0 semi-final victory over Spain.[15]
