Club career

edit

Born in Porto, Ferreira spent his first four years as a senior with local team Gondomar S.C. in the third division. In summer 2015 he signed with C.D. Mafra,[2] making his professional debut on 8 August by playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 away draw against Gil Vicente F.C. in the Segunda Liga.[3]

On 21 June 2016, after suffering relegation, Ferreira signed a three-year deal with G.D. Estoril Praia.[4] He first appeared in the Primeira Liga on 15 August, starting a 0–2 home loss to C.D. Feirense.[5]

Ferreira returned to the second tier on 12 July 2018, joining Académica de Coimbra.[6] He continued competing at that level the following seasons with Mafra[7] and F.C. Arouca,[8] contributing 22 matches (26 in all competitions) in 2020–21[9] as the latter club won two promotions in two years to return to the top flight.[10]

On 21 January 2022, after only four official games in the first half of the campaign, Ferreira left the Estádio Municipal de Arouca as a free agent and returned to division two with G.D. Chaves.[9] In the following years, he represented Leixões SC (second tier)[11] and C.D. Trofense (Liga 3).[12]
