Club career
Portugal
Born in Almada, Setúbal District, Ceitil spent his first four years as a senior in the lower leagues, representing in the process C.D. Cova da Piedade, S.U. Sintrense and S.C. Farense.[2] On 12 July 2018 he signed a three-year deal with Leixões S.C. of the LigaPro,[3] making his debut in the competition on 26 August in a 2–1 away win against G.D. Estoril Praia where he played the full 90 minutes.[4]
In the summer of 2019, Ceitil terminated his contract at the Estádio do Mar.[5]
Universitatea Cluj
On 7 July 2019, Ceitil joined Romanian club FC Universitatea Cluj for two seasons.[6] His maiden appearance in Liga II took place on 11 August, when he started and finished the 3–0 home victory over ACS Viitorul Târgu Jiu.[7]
Vilafranquense
Ceitil returned to both Portugal and its second division during the 2020 January transfer window, joining newly promoted U.D. Vilafranquense on a one-and-a-half-year contract.[8] He appeared in six matches until the end of the campaign,[9] which was cut short with no relegations due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[10][11]
