After accumulating more experience with Portugal Sports B and playing 23 times for the first team, Essugo was loaned to Portuguese Super League team Chaves in the second half of the 2023/24 season, and made 14 appearances during this period. At the beginning of the 2024/25 season, he played twice for Portugal Sports, and then completed a transfer to join Las Palmas on loan. He played 27 times for the team in various competitions and scored 1 goal.
