Brian Federico Ferreira (born May 24, 1994[1]) is an Argentine-Iraqi footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Indonesian club Persela Lamongan.

Career

Brian Ferreira was a product of Velez Sarsfield academy, which produces great players like Carlos Bianchi and Nicolás Otamendi. He was considered as one the most exciting prospects at Velez, having been promoted to the club's senior team in January 2016.[2]

However, due to his club's worsening financial situation, Ferreira was released as a free agent in September 2016. He then went to Club Olimpo but failed to impress. He was then quickly loaned to Club Atlético Independiente's reserve team, where he failed to make a single appearance[2]

On international level, Ferreira represented Argentina in the 2011 U-17 FIFA World Cup that was held in Mexico, in which he managed to score an amazing halfway-line goal in a 3–1 defeat against Japan.[3]

Having failed to stamp his mark on Argentina, Ferreira moved his footballing career to Asia. His first destination is Johor Darul Ta'zim F.C. whom are seeking a direct replacement for outgoing Jorge Pereyra Díaz.[2]

Although Ferreira was born and grew up in Argentina, he currently holds an Iraqi passport and in the 2017 Malaysia Super League season, he was registered as an AFC player as part of the 4 foreign players allowed to be registered per team. As a result, he is eligible to represent Iraq on an international level.[4]
