Club career
Bondoso was born in Moimenta da Beira, Viseu District. He spent his first seven seasons as a senior in the third division or lower.

Bondoso signed with F.C. Vizela of the third tier in the summer of 2019, from Lusitano FCV. He was part of the squads that earned two promotions in as many seasons to reach the Primeira Liga, scoring three goals in 29 Liga Portugal 2 matches in the second and subsequently renewing his contract until 30 June 2024.

On 6 August 2021, Bondoso made his debut in the Portuguese top flight, starting in a 3–0 away loss against Sporting CP. He scored his first goal the following weekend, helping the hosts come from behind to defeat C.D. Tondela 2–1.

On 2 September 2023, Israeli Premier League club Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C. announced the signing of Bondoso on a three-year contract with an option for a further year, for a fee reportedly close to €1 million. He scored his only goal on 3 January 2024, in the 4–1 away win over F.C. Ashdod; his team were ultimately crowned champions.

Bondoso went back to Portugal in July 2024, on a season-long loan at Rio Ave FC.
