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 Liga MX club Juárez.
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.
Ricardinho returned to the Estádio de São Miguel for the 2021âÂÂ22 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 0âÂÂ0 away draw. His Primeira Liga bow was a 3âÂÂ0 loss at C.D. Tondela a week later, also off the bench. His first professional goal was on 26 October, in a 3âÂÂ1 win over FC Porto in the League Cup.
Ricardinho scored for the first time in the Portuguese top flight on 7 January 2022, closing the 3âÂÂ2 home defeat of Sporting CP shortly after having replaced Crysan. In the 2023âÂÂ24 campaign, he contributed 32 games to a promotion from the Liga Portugal 2 as champions.
In 2024âÂÂ25, Ricardinho scored seven times to help the Azoreans finish fifth and qualify for the UEFA Conference League, making 31 appearances in all competitions. In May 2025, after rejecting offers to renew his expiring contract, he left.
On 18 June 2025, Ricardinho moved abroad and signed a three-year deal with Liga MX side FC Juárez.
