Club career

In the 2011–12 season, he shone for Sertanense, scoring 16 goals in 32 games, and secured a contract with Sporting Braga.[1] In January 2013, Ribeiro was sent on loan to Desportivo das Aves until June.[2]

On 21 June 2014, he agreed a one-year deal with Polish top division side Lechia Gdańsk.[3] However, this would only last a few months and in November, Ribeiro signed for Belenenses.[4] He made his debut on 7 March, in a 1–1 away draw against Vitória de Setúbal.

In the summer of 2015, Ribeiro was loaned for one season to Segunda Liga club Mafra.[5]
