B. Lima

Bernardo Lima made his senior debut for FC Porto B in the 2025–26 Liga Portugal 2 season. He had joined the club's academy after coming through AD Sanjoanense and Dragon Force, progressing through the under-15, under-17 and under-19 ranks before earning a place in the B team. Across his first campaign at that level he has made 11 appearances and scored once.

The clearest marker of his progress so far came with the Portugal national youth set-up rather than at club level. In 2025, Lima was part of the Portugal squad that won both the FIFA U17 World Cup and the UEFA U17 European Championship, a double that stands as the outstanding achievement of his career to date. He had earned his first youth caps at under-15 level, scoring on that stage, and continued to be selected through the under-16, under-17, under-18 and under-19 age groups, contributing goals along the way at under-17 and under-19.

Porto have shown long-term confidence in the São João da Madeira-born player, tying him to the club with a contract running to 2031. For now, his task is to convert the caps and the international silverware into a settled run in Porto B's first team.
