Football career

After completing his youth formation at the club, Henrique made his senior debuts with A.D. Fafe, playing three seasons in the third division. In the 2008 summer he joined C.D. Aves in the second level, being almost exclusively played as a backup during his spell.

Henrique played with C.D. Feirense in 2010–11, starting in 18 of his league appearances and scoring three goals as the club returned to the Primeira Liga after 22 years. In the ensuing off-season he signed for S.C. Braga for three years, being immediately loaned to his previous club and being rarely used as the campaign ended in relegation (ten official appearances, due to injury).
On 28 June 2012, after buying out his Braga contract, Henrique joined Académica de Coimbra on a two-year deal. In the last minutes of the summer transfer window, however, he moved to the Football League Championship with Blackburn Rovers, sharing teams with several compatriots including former Braga teammate Nuno Gomes.
On 1 July 2013, Henrique signed for F.C. Arouca in his country's top division, on a season-long loan. He returned to Ewood Park in January of the following year and, on 28 February, moved to Jagiellonia Białystok in the Polish Ekstraklasa.
