On 1 August 2021, Morais scored a brace in a 2–0 home victory over Portimonense, in the second round of the Taça da Liga; becoming Boavista's youngest ever goalscorer at 17 years and 332 days, breaking João Vieira Pinto's previous record.[3]

On 23 August 2022, Morais signed a new contract with Boavista until 2026 and was sent on a season-long loan to Liga Portugal 2 club Leixões S.C.[4] Five days later, he made his debut for the Matosinhos side, coming off the bench to replace Kiki Silva in the final minutes of a 3–0 home victory over Nacional in the league.[5] On 1 October 2022, Morais scored his first goal for Leixões, the second in a 5–0 thrashing away at Campeonato de Portugal side CF Vasco da Gama Vidigueira, in the second round of the Taça de Portugal.[6] He scored his first league goal on 12 March 2023, in a 1–1 draw at home to Estrela da Amadora in the Liga Portugal 2.[7]

After returning from his loan at Leixões, Morais scored his first Primeira Liga goal for Boavista on 19 August 2023, in a 4–1 victory away at Portimonense.[8]

Lille

On 30 January 2024, Morais signed a four-and-a-half-year contract with Ligue 1 club Lille.[9][10] The French side paid a reported €4 million transfer fee.[11]

In July 2024, Morais returned to Portugal, joining Rio Ave on a season-long loan deal.[12]
