Pedro Miguel Dinis Ferreira (born 5 January 1998) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Primeira Liga club Santa Clara.
Club career
[edit]Sporting CP
[edit]Born in Marinha Grande, Leiria District, Ferreira developed at Vieirense and União de Leiria before joining the ranks of Sporting CP in 2011. In July 2018, having not made a senior appearance for Sporting or their reserves, he joined LigaPro club Mafra on a season-long loan.[1] He made his debut on 12 August in a 1–0 win at Varzim as a 76th-minute substitute for Bruninho.[2] He played 29 times for the team from Lisbon District, split almost evenly between starts and appearances from the bench.
Varzim
[edit]In July 2019, Ferreira cancelled his Sporting contract to enable him to sign for Varzim on a free transfer. His previous employers retained 50% of his economic rights, however.[3]
AaB
[edit]Ferreira joined Danish Superliga club AaB on 19 August 2020, signing a four-year deal.[4][5] He made his debut on 13 September, on the first matchday of the 2020–21 season, in a 0–0 draw against Lyngby Boldklub.[6]
He scored his first two professional goals on 12 September 2021 in a league game against Viborg FF, helping his team to a 3–2 away win.[7]
Santa Clara
[edit]On 3 January 2024, Ferreira returned to Portugal, signing a contract until June 2026 with Liga Portugal 2 club Santa Clara.[8]
