In 2003, Caseiro returned to Portugal with Maia despite the possibility staying in Spain. However, he left at the end of 2003/04 due Maia's financial problems and later said he "made a mistake when I decided to return to Portuguese football".
At the end of 2004/05, Caseiro retired from football at the age of 25.
In 2013, he came out of retirement to sign for Atert Bissen in the Luxembourgish lower leagues.
