Born in Santa Marinha (Vila Nova de Gaia), Sousa joined FC Porto's youth system in 2004, aged 12. Seven years later, after having playing in several sides at the club, he made his senior debut with FC Brașov in the Romanian Liga I, signing alongside compatriot Ricardo Machado.[2]
In the summer of 2013, after one and a half seasons in the Cypriot First Division with two teams,[3] Sousa moved back to his homeland by joining Sporting CP's reserves of the Segunda Liga.[4] Subsequently, he returned to top-flight football with Belgian Pro League's Waasland-Beveren.[5][6]
On 13 January 2017, Aris Thessaloniki F.C. announced the signing of Sousa on a one-and-a-half-year deal.[7] He made his official debut 12 days later, in a 1–1 home draw against Olympiacos F.C. in the round of 16 of the Greek Football Cup.[8] He scored his first Football League goal on 9 April, helping to a 2–0 home win over Kallithea FC.[9]
Sousa agreed to extend his contract on 20 June 2018, until 2020.[10] On 19 October 2020, he joined Romanian club FC Astra Giurgiu on a one-year deal.[11]
