Career

Born in Vila do Bispo, near Sagres, Ferreira arrived at Benfica in 1938, making his debut on 22 December of the same year, against Casa Pia. Although Albino, Gaspar Pinto and Francisco Ferreira left him little chance to play in his first season, in the following years he gradually gained importance, playing 16 league games in 1941–42, 13 in 1942–43 and 17 in 1943–44. From 1944, with the breakthrough of Francisco Moreira, his playing time was cut significantly and he left the club in 1946 with six major titles won in 111 appearances in all competitions.
