Ricardo Jorge Oliveira António (born 6 August 1998), known as Ricardinho, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a winger or attacking midfielder for Primeira Liga club Santa Clara.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Santa Maria da Feira, Aveiro District, Ricardinho played youth football with FC Porto and Rio Ave FC, starting his senior career with the latter's under-23 and reserve teams. He joined C.D. Santa Clara in 2019, and shortly after went on successive loans with third division clubs S.C. Praiense and S.C.U. Torreense.[2][3]

Ricardinho returned to the Estádio de São Miguel for the 2021–22 season. He made his professional debut on 1 August 2021 in the second round of the Taça da Liga against S.C. Farense, as a 76th-minute substitute for Carlos; his team won on a penalty shootout after a 0–0 away draw.[4] His Primeira Liga bow was a 3–0 loss at C.D. Tondela a week later, also off the bench.[5] His first professional goal was on 26 October, in a 3–1 win over FC Porto in the League Cup.[6]

Ricardinho scored for the first time in the Portuguese top flight on 7 January 2022, closing the 3–2 home defeat of Sporting CP shortly after having replaced Crysan.[7]
