Club career

Born in Bissau, Injai played most of his career in Portugal, mainly for modest clubs, but had a four-year Primeira Liga spell with Gil Vicente FC, being used with regularity. His worst output consisted of 22 matches in the 2002–03 season, in which he started in 18 of those appearances as the Barcelos team finished in eighth position.

In July 2007, after a brief spell in the Portuguese second division with Portimonense SC, Braíma left for Cyprus's Olympiakos Nicosia. In early 2009, he returned to Africa, joining Angolan side Estrela Clube Primeiro de Maio, but went back to Portugal shortly after and resumed his career in amateur football.
