Club career

Sporting

Born in Cascais, Lisbon District, Duarte joined Sporting CP's youth academy at the age of 16.[2] He spent two full seasons with their reserves in the Segunda Liga to kickstart his senior career, his first match in the competition occurring on 5 October 2014 when he played 90 minutes in the 2–1 home win against C.D. Trofense.[3]

Duarte served loan spells from 2016 to 2018, respectively at C.F. Os Belenenses[4] and G.D. Chaves and with both clubs competing in the Primeira Liga.[5] He made his league debut on 14 August 2016 while at the service of the former in a 0–2 away loss to Vitória de Setúbal,[6] and scored his first goal on 1 October of the same year in a 1–3 away defeat to precisely Chaves.[7]

On 3 August 2018, still owned by Sporting, Duarte signed with Deportivo de La Coruña with an option to buy.[8] He scored in his very first appearance in the Spanish Segunda División, helping the visitors earn a point at Albacete Balompié after the 1–1 draw.[9]

Granada

On 14 July 2019, Duarte joined freshly promoted Granada CF on a four-year deal for a €3 million fee, with Sporting keeping 25% of future sale rights.[10] He made his La Liga debut on 17 August, playing the entire 4–4 away draw against Villarreal CF,[11] and scored his first goal on 5 October in a 4–2 loss at Real Madrid.[12]

International career

Duarte won his only cap for the Portuguese under-21 side on 24 March 2017, when he featured 11 minutes in a 3–1 friendly win over Norway in Estoril.[13] In November 2019, manager Fernando Santos called him up for the first time to the senior team ahead of UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers against Luxembourg and Lithuania.[14]

On 11 November 2020, Duarte made his full debut, in a 7–0 rout of Andorra in another exhibition at the Estádio da Luz.[15]
