Football career[]

Born in Porto, Ricardinho was a youth product of FC Porto, DFC Academy, Padroense F.C. and Rio Ave FC. He played for Rio Ave's under-23 and reserve teams. He joined C.D. Santa Clara in 2019, and shortly after went on successive loans with Campeonato de Portugal S.C. Praiense and S.C.U. Torreense before returning to Santa Clara in the summer of 2021.[1]

He made his professional debut on 1 August 2021 in the Taça da Liga first round away to S.C. Farense, as a 76th-minute substitute for Carlos; his team won on a penalty shootout after a 1–1 draw.[2] His league bow was a 3–0 Primeira Liga loss at C.D. Tondela a week later, also off the bench.[3] His first professional goal was on 26 October in a 3–1 win in a home league cup group game against FC Porto.[4]
