Nuno Vieira Campos (born 13 June 1993) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for S.C.U. Torreense as a right-back.

He began his career at Nacional, playing 114 games and earning promotion from the second tier twice.

Club career[edit]

Born in Funchal, Madeira, Campos played from the age of 8 at hometown side C.D. Nacional. He made his professional debut on 9 January 2013 in a dead rubber Taça da Liga group fixture against G.D. Estoril Praia, in which he was one of three young debutants in a 1–0 home win.[2] Eighteen days later he made his Primeira Liga debut in a 2–0 away victory over Vitória de Setúbal, as a 56th-minute substitute for Miguel Rodrigues.[3]

Campos featured rarely for Nacional over the ensuing years. After their relegation in 2017, he played all but one games the following season to promote immediately as champions,[4] and scored his only goal for the Alvinegros on 18 March to open a 3–0 defeat of Varzim S.C. at the Estádio da Madeira.[5] On 15 July 2020, having appeared in just three matches as the club was promoted again, he rescinded his contract.[6]

On 16 July 2020, Campos signed for C.D. Mafra in the second tier.[7] A year later, he moved to G.D. Chaves of the same league.[8]
