Club career

Born in Amarante, Porto District, Queirós started playing football with hometown club Amarante FC. He would go on to represent modest Portuguese sides: F.C. Felgueiras, F.C. Lixa and A.D. Sanjoanense (with whom, in 2001–02 season, he scored four goals in as many games in the Portuguese Cup).

Subsequently, Queirós made his debut in the Primeira Liga, with F.C. Paços de Ferreira,[1][2] where he netted 11 times in 54 official appearances, moving to U.D. Leiria for 2004–05. He rejoined the former for three further campaigns but, having been rarely used, signed for Khazar Lankaran FK of the Azerbaijan Premier League in July 2008.

Unsettled, Queirós returned home after only one year, joining second division team C.D. Feirense. In the summer of 2010 the 33-year-old moved to Boavista FC, retiring in January 2012 due to injury problems.[3]
