Diogo Leite

Diogo Filipe Monteiro Pinto Leite (born 23 January 1999) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for S.C. Braga on loan from FC Porto.

Club Career

Born in Porto, Leite joined FC Porto's youth academy at the age of 9. He made his professional debut with the reserve team on 27 August 2017, playing the entire 1–0 home win against C.D. Santa Clara for the LigaPro.

In late July 2018, due to several injuries to the back sector, first-team manager Sergio Conceicao called Leite for the upcoming Supertaca Candido de Oliveira match against C.D. Aves; he partnered Felipe in that match, a 3–1 victory in Aveiro. Shortly before that event, he had renewed his contract until 2023.

Leite's maiden appearance in the Primeira Liga took place on 11 August 2018 in the season opener, and he again played the entire 5–0 home defeat of G.D. Chaves. He scored his first goal in the competition the following weekend, helping to a 3–2 victory at Belenenses SAD; shortly after, however, he returned to the reserves.

On 31 August 2021, Leite was loaned to S.C. Braga for one year.
