Club career

Anunciação was born in Matosinhos. During his early career he played mostly in the Segunda Liga, and represented C.D. Feirense, F.C. Paços de Ferreira, C.D. Aves, Boavista F.C. and Moreirense FC.

In 2007, Anunciação returned to Paços for a second spell, going on to spend several seasons in the Primeira Liga, mainly as a starter. Towards the end of his career, in the 2012–13 campaign, the 33-year-old still appeared in 17 games – four starts, 464 minutes of action – as the team finished a best-ever third and qualified for the UEFA Champions League;[2] he was also the undisputed team captain when available.[3] [4] [5] [6]
