Born in Almada to a Brazilian father,[1] Rocha represented nine different clubs during his youth career, and finished his formation with AS Monaco FC.

Rocha scored his first senior goal on 1 October 2017, scoring his team's third in a 3–1 home defeat of CDF Tres Cantos. The following 31 January, after three goals in ten matches, he was loaned to Segunda División B side Ontinyent CF until June.[4]

Roeselare.[7] He finished the campaign with 16 goals, being the division's top goalscorer as his side narrowly avoided relegation.
Remaining in Belgium, Rocha signed a three-year contract with First Division A side KAS Eupen on 23 July 2019. The fee was €500,000.[8] In 2020–21, he was loaned back to the second tier at RWDM47 where he was the club's top scorer.[9] On 10 October 2020, he scored a hat-trick for the Molenbeek-based club in an 8–1 win at Union Rochefortoise in the fifth round of the national cup.[10]
