Yuri Oliveira Ribeiro (born 24 January 1997) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Benfica as a left-back.

Club career

Born in Vieira do Minho, Braga District, Ribeiro started playing football at Escola Os Craques when he was 9. He joined S.C. Braga's academy four years later and, at the age of 13, signed for S.L. Benfica where he went on to finish his development and win the 2013 juvenile national championship.[1]

Ribeiro made his senior debut for Benfica's reserves on 29 May 2015, starting in a 2–1 home win against Vitória S.C. B for the Segunda Liga.[2] He started the following season as a back-up to Pedro Rebocho, but was called to action when the latter injured himself at Varzim SC.[3]

Ribeiro first appeared in official matches with the first team on 14 December 2016, playing the entire 3–0 away victory over Real S.C. for the campaign's Taça de Portugal.[4][5] The following 3 January, he also started against F.C. Vizela for the Taça da Liga (4–0 win at the Estádio da Luz, for the group stage).[6]

On 30 June 2017, Ribeiro joined Rio Ave F.C. on a season-long loan deal.[7][8] His maiden appearance in the Primeira Liga took place on 7 August, in a 1–0 home defeat of C.F. Os Belenenses.[9][10]

Ribeiro returned to Benfica for the 2018–19 campaign, extending his contract with the club for an additional five years.[11]

International career

Ribeiro represented Portugal in the 2014 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, helping his team reach the semi-finals where they lost to eventual winners England.[12] On 7 July 2016, he was selected by the under-19 side for that year's European Championship in Germany.[13]

Ribeiro won his first cap for the under-21s on 2 September 2016 at 19, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 0–0 home draw to Israel for the 2017 European Championship qualifiers.[14]

Personal life

Ribeiro's father was a goalkeeper, whilst his older brother Romeu also played for Benfica and Portugal at youth level.[15]
