His primary position on the field is well-associated with the number 7 jersey, which he proudly wears. His impressive show of skills and stamina is not just limited to his club, as he has also had the honour of representing his native national team, Guinea-Bissau.
Although honing his skills at FC Midtjylland, his prowess on the field does not go unnoticed outside of Denmark. His current market value stands around a noteworthy €13.00m (£11m), according to Transfermarkt.
The journey to his current club started in July 2019, when young Djú forged his capabilities as a trainee with Benfica B in the Liga Portugal 2 in Portugal. His development over the years was evident, and he made a significant transfer to FC Midtjylland in the Superliga in Denmark in July 2023.
In his debut season, 2023 - 2024, at FC Midtjylland, Djú left quite a mark with his 27 first-team appearances, during which he netted 11 goals in league matches. He continued this trend into the following season (2024 - 2025), once again scoring 11 goals throughout the course of his 28 first team appearances. In the current season, 2025 - 2026, Djú has maintained his striking precision, having already scored 12 goals in league matches across his 12 first team appearances.
His strength and prowess were further exhibited on an international stage during the World Cup Qualifiers Africa 2024 - 2026 for Guinea-Bissau.

Moreover, in the Europa League Qualifiers 2025 - 2026 for FC Midtjylland and the Europa League 2025 - 2026, Djú managed to score a total of three goals across his appearances, further cementing his growing status at FC Midtjylland.
