Club career
Born in Rotterdam, Fortes played for Sparta Rotterdam, UVS and Feyenoord's youth setups before joining SV Heinenoord in June 2013.[1] However, in July, he was spotted by Nike Academy's program The Chance, and was assigned to their squad.
On 4 September 2013 Fortes signed his first pro deal, joining Finnish Kakkonen side Palloseura Kemi Kings.[2] He appeared in six matches for the club, scoring once, as his side narrowly missed out promotion.
In March 2014 Fortes was about to join FC Dordrecht, being initially assigned to their youth setup, but the deal later collapsed. In August he moved to RKC Waalwijk.[3]
Fortes made his professional debut on 22 August 2014, coming on as a second half substitute in a 3–2 away win against FC Den Bosch for the Eerste Divisie championship.[4] He scored his first goal on 17 October, netting the first in a 2–0 home win against SC Telstar.[5]
On 10 December 2014 Fortes signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with Eredivisie side Vitesse Arnhem, but being assigned to the youth squad until the end of the campaign.[6] Only two months later, his contract was rescinded.[7]
