Club career

Born in Braga to former FC Porto and S.C. Braga Brazilian player Pena, Pablo joined F.C. Famalicão's youth system at the age of 15, following a brief spell in his father's homeland with Fluminense FC.[2][3] In July 2021, after having made his senior debut with the club's under-23 team, he signed a professional contract until 2024.[4]

Pablo made his Primeira Liga debut with the main squad debut on 8 August 2021, coming on as a 60th-minute substitute in a 2–0 away loss against F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[5] On 15 September 2022, he further extended his link until 2027.[6] He scored his first goal in the competition the following 22 April, closing the 3–2 home win over C.S. Marítimo in the 98th minute.[7]

On 12 January 2024, Famalicão sent Pablo on loan to Liga Portugal 2 side Paços de Ferreira until the end of the season.[8]
