Pedro Ricardo Marques Pereira Monteiro (born 3 May 1978), known as Pedrinha, is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a central midfielder.

He amassed Primeira Liga totals of 184 matches and 11 goals over eight seasons, all with Paços de Ferreira.

Club career

Born in Marco de Canaveses, Porto, Pedrinha grew up through the ranks of F.C. Penafiel and made his debut as a senior in the second division, switching in 2001 to F.C. Paços de Ferreira[1] and making his first Primeira Liga appearance on 12 August of that year, against C.F. Os Belenenses. He was an automatic first-choice for his new club, enduring relegation at the end of the 2003–04 season and being promoted immediately after.

On 22 April 2009, Pedrinha scored twice – both from penalty kicks – in a 3–2 win at C.D. Nacional for the second leg of the semi-finals of the Portuguese Cup (5–4 aggregate victory).[2] During his career at Paços and two seasons at Penafiel he partnered, in central midfield, Paulo Sousa.[3][4]

On 26 January 2010, Bulgarian side PSFC Chernomorets Burgas signed Pedrinha to a two-year deal worth €180,000.[5] "I hope he will lead the team into the heavy battles in the second half of the season", club manager Krassimir Balakov said upon his arrival. He made his début two days later, in a 3–0 friendly win against PFC Nesebar.[6]

In December 2010, Pedrinha was released by Chernomorets after Balakov resigned as head coach. In late June of the following year, the 33-year-old returned to first professional team Penafiel, also in the second level; after retiring, he became manager of the latter club's reserves.[7]
