Luís Hemir Silva Semedo (born 11 August 2003) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Premier League club Sunderland.
Club career
Benfica B
Semedo played all of his youth football at Benfica, signing a youth contract with the club in 2018, as an under-17.[1]
Having made his way through the club's under-18 and under-19 during the following season—with an average of more than one goal per game—the young footballer signed his first professional contract with As Águias in August 2020.[2][3]
Having started to play with Benfica's under-23 in the Liga Revelação midway through the 2020–21 season,[4] he became a regular starter and scorer with the team during the following one.[5][6][7]
At that time he was also playing a major role in the Youth League, where the Benfica under-19 topped their group against Dynamo Kyiv, Barcelona and Bayern Munich, scoring a goal against the latter during a 2–0 away win in November 2021[8][9] and most notably during their last pool game, a 1–0 home win against the Ukrainian that earned them the top spot.[10][11]
While having made his first trainings under first team coach Jorge Jesus,[12][13] Semedo made his professional debut for Benfica B on the 23 January 2022, replacing Duk during a Liga Portugal 2 home win against Penafiel.[14]
Semedo scored the winning goal for Benfica at the 2022 Under-20 Intercontinental Cup.[15]
Sunderland
On 18 June 2023, Semedo joined EFL Championship side Sunderland on a five-year contract,[16] for a fee of €500,000.[17]
International career
Born in Portugal, Semedo is of Cape Verdean descent.[18] He was selected with Portugal under-16 during the 2019–20 season,[2][3] he later played with the under-19 in September 2021.[19]
