Born in Luanda, Angola, Garcia made his debut in professional football, being part of the Genk squad in the 2003–04 season. He also played for VVV-Venlo before joining RKC Waalwijk. Afterwards he played in Angola for Caála and Progresso Sambizanga. From January 2015, Garcia played for Tilleur in Belgium.[1] In 2016, he moved to Bressoux.
