Club career
[edit]Born in Porto, Ferreira spent his first four years as a senior with local Gondomar in the third division. In summer 2015 he signed with Mafra,[2] making his professional debut on 8 August by playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 away draw against Gil Vicente in the Segunda Liga.[3]
On 21 June 2016, after suffering team relegation, Ferreira signed a three-year deal with Estoril.[4] He first appeared in the Primeira Liga on 15 August, starting in a 0–2 home loss to 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 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 the second division with Chaves.[9]
On 2 August 2022, Ferreira joined Liga Portugal 2 club Leixões on a one-year contract.[11]
On 27 January 2024, Ferreira joined Liga 3 club Trofense.[12]
