Diogo de Sousa Ribeiro (born 14 January 1991) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for C.D. Santa Clara.

Club career

Born in Coimbra, Ribeiro finished his formation at local Associação Académica, but never represented the club officially. In the 2011–12 season, he shone for Sertanense F.C. in the third division, scoring 16 goals in 32 games and subsequently securing a contract with S.C. Braga.[1]

Ribeiro only represented the B-team during his two-year spell in Minho, also being loaned to Segunda Liga side C.D. Aves in January 2013.[2] On 21 June 2014, he signed a one-year deal with Lechia Gdańsk from the Polish Ekstraklasa,[3] but he returned to his country after only a few months, joining C.F. Os Belenenses;[4] he made his debut in the Primeira Liga on 7 March 2015, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–1 away draw against Vitória de Setúbal.

In the summer of 2015, Ribeiro was loaned for one season to second level club C.D. Mafra.[5] The following January, in the same predicament, he moved to S.C. Covilhã in the same division.
