Football career
After beginning professionally with lowly Clube Caçadores das Taipas, Milhazes joined hometown's Varzim S.C. (in the second division). After appearing scarcely for Boavista F.C. in 2004–05's Primeira Liga, his first top flight season, he joined Rio Ave FC, experiencing both relegation and promotion.
In late January 2008, Milhazes joined Romanian Liga I side FC Politehnica Timișoara, first on loan. After the move was made permanent, he returned to Portugal exactly one year after and signed with Vitória de Guimarães on loan until the end of the campaign, as a replacement for Jacques Momha who left for Turkey; in June 2009, he agreed to a permanent contract.
In August 2010, after having appeared rarely for Vitória throughout the league season, Milhazes returned to Rio Ave. He finished his career well into his 30's, appearing for two teams in the Superleague Greece.
