Artur Jorge made both his main squad and Primeira Liga debut on 19 September 2016, coming on as a 71st-minute substitute for the injured André Pinto in a 3–1 away loss against S.L. Benfica.[4] He contributed a further 15 starts until the end of the season, in a fifth-place finish; on 3 December he was sent off after 35 minutes for conceding a penalty kick in a 1–0 defeat at FC Porto with a foul on André Silva, who missed the attempt.[5] He added four appearances in the Taça da Liga, including a start in the 1–0 final loss to Moreirense F.C. on 29 January 2017.[6][7]
