Guima returned to Académica and the Portuguese second tier on 7 September 2020, in a season-long loan.[10] In August 2021, he signed a permanent deal with G.D. Chaves in the same league,[11] scoring once in 20 games in his debut campaign in a promotion to the Primeira Liga via the play-offs.[12][13]
