Club career

Born in Marinha Grande, Leiria District, Ferreira developed at I.D. Vieirense and U.D. 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 C.D. Mafra on a season-long loan.[1] He made his debut on 12 August in a 1–0 win at Varzim S.C. 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.

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]
