Isnaba Graca: Guinea-Bissau forward joins Uniao Santarem from Felgueiras

Guinea-Bissau-born centre-forward Isnaba Graca has joined Uniao Santarem from Felgueiras, signing a deal with the Liga 3 side until 30 June 2027. The 24-year-old, who also holds Portuguese nationality, makes the move ahead of the 2026-27 campaign as Santarem strengthen their attacking options.

Graca, a 1.93m left-footed striker, leaves Felgueiras after a year on the club’s books, having initially arrived there from Maritimo B in the summer of 2025. His stint included a loan spell at Lusitano Evora during the 2025-26 season before returning to Felgueiras and now making a switch to Liga 3.

The forward has built up experience across several levels of Portuguese football, featuring in Liga Portugal 2, Liga 3 and the Campeonato de Portugal, as well as the national cup competitions. Across his senior and under-23 outings, he has recorded double figures in goals in multiple campaigns, including 12 strikes in the Revelacao U23 Championship and seven in CP – Serie B.

Born in Bissau in January 2002, Graca first emerged in the Leixoes system, progressing from the under-19s to the under-23s and then the first team. He later moved to Estrela Amadora’s under-23 side, where he was part of a squad that won the Portuguese Under-23 Championship in 2022-23, before stepping into senior football with Maritimo B.

Graca’s contract with Uniao Santarem runs to the end of June 2027, confirming his long-term move to the Liga 3 club.
