Club Career

Early career

Born in Porto, Sequeira finished his development at Leixoes SC. He made his senior debut in the lower leagues, with Leca F.C. and AD Fafe.

Sequeira returned to the Estadio do Mar for the 2012–13 season. He made his first appearance in the Segunda Liga on 12 August 2012, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 home win against C.S. Maritimo B.

Nacional

Sequeira signed with Primeira Liga club C.D. Nacional in late March 2013, with the four-year contract being made effective in the summer. His maiden game in the competition took place on 23 November of the same year in a 1–1 away draw to FC Porto where he also started, but he eventually totalled just 13 matches in his first two seasons.

Sequeira scored his first goal in the Portuguese top division on 27 November 2015, contributing to a 3–1 home victory over C.S. Maritimo in the Madeira derby. Starting in all of his 31 appearances during the campaign, he helped his team to a final 11th position in the table.

Braga

On 24 May 2017, following Nacional's relegation in last place, Sequeira moved to fellow top-level side S.C. Braga on a four-year deal. He scored his first goal on 30 October 2018, in a 5–0 home defeat of his previous club in the group stage of the Taca da Liga.

On 25 January 2020, Sequeira played the full 90 minutes as they won the aforementioned tournament by a single goal in the final against Porto. His season ended six games early in June, due to a left-thigh muscle injury at the end of the derby with Vitoria de Guimaraes.
