In the first year he was loaned to CF Estrela Amadora , where he quickly fought for a regular place. In the 2008/09 season he was included in the active squad of FC Porto, where he established himself alongside players like Raúl Meireles or Luis González .

For the 2014/15 season he moved to the English Premier League for Manchester City .

The Brazilian signed for three years and receives a base salary of € 3.3 million per season. For the 2019/20 season, Reges moved to Spain to FC Sevilla . Sevilla paid a transfer fee of 4.5 million euros for the midfielder.

National team

Fernando was accepted into the Brazilian team for the South American U-20 championship in 2007 . Despite winning the continental tournament, he was not considered for the subsequent U-20 World Cup. After receiving Portuguese citizenship in December 2013, FIFA refused Fernando permission to play for the Portuguese Association. To change associations, Fernando would have had to have a theoretical right to Portuguese citizenship during his U-20 competitive matches for Brazil.
