Francisco Miguel Teixeira Domingues, known as Kiko, was born in Lisbon on 16 April 2002. A left-footed left-back, he grew up almost entirely inside Benfica's academy, interrupted only by a season at Belenenses in 2018/19, and signed his first professional contract on 20 February 2020.
He made his professional debut for Benfica B on 12 August 2022, coming off the bench late in a 1-1 draw with Tondela, and went on to spend three seasons with the reserve team wearing the number 78. He played 14 matches in 2022/23, 13 in 2023/24 and 30 in 2024/25, when he scored his only goal for the side and wore the captain's armband. He was never used by the first team.
After renewing in March 2023, Domingues left Benfica on 2 July 2025 for Moreirense FC, signing a four-year contract and taking the number 27. He made his Primeira Liga breakthrough there in 2025/26.
