Portrait of Tomas Ribeiro
Born in Lisbon, on April 30, 1999, he took the junior in Belenenses, the first steps in big football taking them to B-Sad, a team derived from Belenenses, after a legal conflict. In the 2022-2023 season, he played in Switzerland, at Grasshoppers, returning to Portugal, after a single year, at Vitoria Guimaraes, where he played until January, when he tried to contribute to the mission of Farense to save himself from relegation.
But without success. Now he is free of contract. According to the specialized portal Transfermarkt, it is listed at 1 million euros, the highest value reaching it last summer: 3 million euros. Against the background of the lack of minutes from Guimaraes, its share has decreased.
Over time, 1.25 million euros were paid for him, but Dinamo could transfer him for free. He measures 185 centimeters, his basic foot is the left, exactly the player profile he wants Zeljko Kopic in the center of the defense. It can also evolve into the position of left defender, if necessary. Last season, for Guimaraes and Farense, he played 16 times, scoring two goals.
