David de Senna Fernandes Sualehe (born 23 March 1997) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Slovenian club Olimpija Ljubljana.

Career

Born in Porto and of Mozambican descent,[2] Sualehe was on the books of several clubs as a youth, including Sporting CP and Belenenses in Lisbon, and FC Porto and Boavista in his hometown. He took part with Porto under-19 in the UEFA Youth League in 2015–16.[3]

In July 2016, Sualehe ended his three-year spell at Porto by signing a five-year contract at Sporting with a release clause of €45 million.[4] On 6 August, he made his professional debut with Sporting B in a 2016–17 LigaPro match against Portimonense, playing the first 73 minutes of a 2–1 home loss before being substituted for Bubacar Djaló.[5]

On 30 August 2018, Sualehe signed a three-year deal at Vitória de Guimarães, being again assigned to the reserve team in the second tier.[6] A year later, after relegation, he was loaned to Farense in the same league.[7]

Sualehe moved to Primeira Liga club Paços de Ferreira on 1 September 2020, having contributed to Farense's promotion to the top flight.[8] Nearly exactly a year later, having not played any games for the Castores, he was loaned to second-tier Académica de Coimbra.[9]

On 12 July 2022, Sualehe left Portugal for the first time in his career, signing a two-year deal with the option of a third at Olimpija Ljubljana in the Slovenian PrvaLiga.[10] He played 30 times in his first season, scoring once on 16 April 2023 to open a 2–0 home win over Maribor in the Eternal derby and win the title with five games remaining; the 20-metre strike was his first goal in 123 senior league appearances in his career.[11] With a 2–1 extra time win over the same opponents in the cup final, the team secured a double.[12]

Personal life

In January 2022, Sualehe's €100,000 Mercedes-Benz E-Class was stolen in Coimbra. It was found by the National Republican Guard in Vila das Aves, abandoned.[13]
