Vitória Guimarães
Tomané was born in Fafe, Braga District. On 16 August 2010, while still a junior at Vitória de Guimarães (he arrived at the club's youth system at the age of 13), he made his professional – and Primeira Liga – debut, taking the pitch in the 67th minute of a 0–0 away draw against S.C. Olhanense;[2] it would be his only appearance of the season.
For the 2011–12 campaign, Tomané was loaned to A.D. Os Limianos in the third division.[3] After returning, he alternated between the first team and the reserves,[4] never scoring more than four league goals for the former during his spell.
On 27 January 2016, Tomané signed a five-month loan with MSV Duisburg.[5] His first match in the 2. Bundesliga occurred on 8 February, as he played 85 minutes in a 2–1 loss at Arminia Bielefeld.[6]
Panetolikos
On 15 June 2016, Tomané joined Super League Greece club Panetolikos F.C. on a three-year contract.[7] He scored his only goal for them on 15 October, helping the hosts to defeat PAE Kerkyra 4–0 by netting shortly after kick-off.[8][9]
Return to Portugal
Tomané returned to his country and its top division on 30 December 2016, agreeing to a deal at F.C. Arouca until June 2019.[10] In the ensuing off-season, however, following his team's relegation, he moved to C.D. Tondela.[11]
As his side avoided relegation in the last matchday of the 2018–19 season, Tomané helped with a career-best 12 goals (14 in all competitions).[12]
Red Star
On 2 July 2019, Tomané signed for Serbian club Red Star Belgrade.[13] He scored five times in his debut campaign to win the SuperLiga,[14] his first goal coming on 17 August in a 3–2 away win over FK Spartak Subotica.[15]
Later career
Tomané changed teams and countries again in summer 2020, on a three-year contract at Samsunspor of the Turkish TFF First League.[16] He won promotion to the Süper Lig in 2022–23, but featured sparingly in the process;[17] he dealt with several injury problems during his tenure.[18]

Tomané earned four caps for the Portugal under-21 team in slightly less than two years. His first arrived on 15 October 2012, as he played the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 friendly home loss to Ukraine.[20]
