Carraça

Rui Filipe Caetano Moura (born 1 March 1993), known as Carraça, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays mainly as a right-back for Primeira Liga club Chaves.

Formed at Boavista, he made over 175 Primeira Liga appearances, also representing Porto as well as spending time on loan at B-SAD and Gil Vicente.

Boavista
Born in Folgosa, Maia, Carraça earned his nickname meaning "tick" for his aggressive style of play while at his village club. He finished his development at Boavista F.C. after joining at the age of 16; his first two seasons as a senior were spent in the third division.

From 2014 to 2016, Carraça competed in the Segunda Liga on loan, respectively with C.D. Tondela and C.D. Santa Clara. While with the former team, his first professional game occurred on 31 August 2014 when he played the second half of a 1–1 home draw against Académico de Viseu FC. He contributed eight starts and 809 minutes of action, in an eventual first-ever promotion to the Primeira Liga.

Returned to the Estádio do Bessa for the 2016–17 campaign, Carraça made his debut in the competition on 14 August 2016, playing the entire 2–0 home win over F.C. Arouca. His first league goal arrived on 21 October, awarding the visitors one point with a 1–1 draw at C.S. Marítimo.

A key played under both Erwin Sánchez and his successor Miguel Leal, Carraça renewed his contract with Boavista on 28 December 2016, with the new link running until June 2018.

Porto
On 12 August 2020, Carraça signed a four-year contract with FC Porto. He took no part in the team until 21 November, when he started in a 2–0 victory at G.D. Fabril in the third round of the Taça de Portugal.

Carraça was loaned to B-SAD on 24 August 2021, for the season. Having provided three assists and missed only eight games as the Lisbon-based side suffered relegation, he moved to Gil Vicente F.C. on the same basis.

On 1 September 2023, Carraça's contract was terminated by mutual agreement.

Later career
On 10 October 2023, Carraça agreed to a one-year deal at top-division club G.D. Chaves; this was due to injury to Habib Sylla.
