Bruno Daniel Pereira Castro Moreira (born 6 September 1987) is a Portuguese former professional footballer who played as a forward.
Born in the village of Landim, Vila Nova de Famalicão, Moreira finished his development at S.C. Braga. He started as a senior with amateurs G.D. Joane, then went on to spend the following five seasons in the Segunda Liga, with Varzim S.C. and Moreirense FC.[2]
In summer 2012, Moreira moved to the Primeira Liga with C.D. Nacional. His first game in the competition took place on 26 August, as he came as a 75th-minute substitute in a 3−1 away loss against former club Moreirense.[3] His first goal arrived on 17 February of the following year, in a 1−1 draw at F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[4] Whilst under contract with the Madeirans, he was loaned to PFC CSKA Sofia from Bulgaria, being released in January 2014 and signing for G.D. Chaves of the second division.[5]
On 16 June 2014, Moreira moved to Paços Ferreira on a two-year deal.[6] During his spell, he was always his team's top scorer, whilst competing in the top tier.[7] [8] [9]
Moreira moved to Thai Premier League champions Buriram United F.C. on 17 May 2016.[10] Returned to Portugal the following year, he went on to represent Paços and Rio Ave FC, signing for the latter on a free transfer on 19 May 2018 after the former's relegation.[11]
On 7 January 2021, Moreira joined top-flight Portimonense SC.[12] He returned to division two in June, on a contract at C.D. Trofense.[13]
Moreira retired on 28 November 2023 aged 36, following a brief stint with AR São Martinho in the Porto regional leagues.[14]
