Portugal
Born in Esposende, Braga District, Lopes started his senior career with Varzim S.C. in the Segunda Liga. In the summer of 2011 he moved to the Primeira Liga after joining Vitória FC, making his debut in the competition on 9 September when he came on as a late substitute in a 0–3 away loss against FC Porto. He scored his first goal for his new club on 18 December, helping to a 1–1 draw at C.D. Nacional.
In the 2013 off-season, after failing to find the net for Moreirense F.C. in 21 bench appearances and suffering top level relegation, Lopes returned to division two with F.C. Penafiel. He moved back to the top tier in the following winter transfer window, signing for Académica de Coimbra until June 2016.
On 20 June 2016, after another relegation, Lopes joined fellow league side G.D. Chaves on a one-year contract. Two of his league goals during the campaign came in consecutive 2–2 draws in early January 2017, against Rio Ave F.C. and Sporting Clube de Portugal.
Omonia
On 10 July 2017, Lopes agreed to a two-year deal with AC Omonia from the Cypriot First Division. He made his debut on 10 September in the season opener, a 2–1 home win against Ethnikos Achna FC.
International career
Lopes was part of the Portugal squad at the 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup. He played four games in the tournament held in Colombia, in an eventual runner-up finish.
