Club career
Early career
Born in Sesimbra, Setúbal District, Paixão spent his early career in Portugal and Spain, playing with lowly teams in both countries – his hometown's G.D. Sesimbra, FC Porto B,[2] CD Guijuelo, Logroñés CF and Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa.
In 2007–08, he suffered relegation from Segunda División B with Logroñés, and in the following season scored 13 goals for Leonesa.[3]
Hamilton Academical
Paixão's first taste of professional football came in 2009 as he signed for Scottish Premier League club Hamilton Academical on 6 August, alongside twin brother Flávio.[4] He made his league debut late in the month, against Aberdeen.[5]
On 11 April 2011, it was announced that Paixão would leave at the end of the campaign.[6] However, just three days later, he was released from his contract with immediate effect, alongside his sibling.[7] He appeared in 56 official matches for the Accies, scoring six goals.
Naft Tehran
On 5 January 2012, Paixão joined his brother in Iran after signing with Naft Tehran F.C. until the end of the season.[8] He made his debut in a 3–1 home loss against Foolad F.C. five days later,[9] scoring his first goal in a 1–0 win over Malavan F.C. on 8 February.[10]
Ethnikos and Poland
In the summer of 2012, Paixão joined Cypriot side Ethnikos Achna FC. He netted his first goal for his new club on 3 November, in a 1–1 draw at AEL Limassol.[11]
In June 2013, Paixão signed a two-year contract with Śląsk Wrocław in Poland.[12] He scored a career-best 21 goals in 2013–14, but his team could only qualify for the relegation play-offs.[13]
In June 2015, Paixão put pen to paper to a two-year deal at AC Sparta Prague.[14] The following January, after being barely used by the Czech club, he returned to the Ekstraklasa with Lechia Gdańsk after agreeing to a two-and-a-half-year contract;[15] his twin joined him a month later.[16]
Paixão concluded the 2016–17 season with hat-tricks in 4–0 home wins over Jagiellonia Białystok and Pogoń Szczecin. This brought his final tally to 18, joint with Lech Poznań's Marcin Robak as the top scorer.[17]
In March 2018, Paixão was removed from the first team when manager Piotr Stokowiec accused him of feigning an injury,[18] and when his contract expired in June, he moved to Altay S.K. in the TFF First League.[19] He was top scorer in his first season with the İzmir-based team, netting 29 times in 33 games.[20]
In December 2023 Paixão signed for Şanlıurfaspor also of the Turkish second tier, with effect from January 2024.[21][22]
International career
During their spell in Poland, both Paixão and his sibling were repeatedly poised to be called up to the Portugal national team, but nothing came of it.[23]
Personal life
Paixão's twin brother Flávio was also a footballer, Marco being the older by five minutes.[24]
