Nuno Filipe Rodrigues Laranjeiro (born 18 January 1983) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for C.D. Fátima as a right or left back.
Club career
Born in Ourém, Santarém District, Laranjeiro started his career at U.D. Leiria in 2001–02, becoming a first-team regular two seasons later, with the club always in the Primeira Liga.
In the 2007–08 campaign, he scored two goals from the penalty spot in the UEFA Intertoto Cup match against FK Hajduk Kula, as his side made it to the UEFA Cup on a 4–2 aggregate (1–0 defeat, 4–1 home win).
In August 2008, upon Leiria's relegation, Laranjeiro joined another top flight struggler, Matosinhos' Leixões SC, starting most of his debut season to help the team finish in sixth position. After only eight second level games in 2010–11, he left the club and signed for C.D. Fátima in division three.
