Club career

Born in Nice, Semedo began his youth career playing for local team Cavigal Nice Sports before joining the AS Monaco academy in 2017.[4][5]

In June 2023, Semedo joined Cercle Brugge on a one-year loan deal.[1][5] He made his professional debut on 30 July 2023, in Cercle Brugge's 0–1 defeat against Royal Antwerp.[6]

International career

Born in France, Semedo is of Cape Verdean descent and holds dual-citizenship.[7] In 2022, he participated in the 2022 UEFA European Under-19 Championship with France under-19s. He started in three out of four matches, as France was defeated by Israel in the semi-finals.[8]

In May 2023, he was selected with France under-20s for the FIFA World Cup.[4][9] Semedo appeared as the starting left-back in all three group stages matches but France failed to advance to the knockout stage.[10]

In May 2025, Semedo was called up to the Cape Verde national team for a set of friendlies.[11] He debuted with Cape Verde in a friendly 1–1 tie with Malaysia on 29 May 2025.[12]

On 10 March 2026, Semedo received approval from FIFA to switch his international allegiance to play official matches for the Cape Verde national team.[13]
