Rúben Faria Ribeiro (born 16 December 1995) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a left-back for G.D. Fabril.

He played 45 games in his country's second tier for Santa Clara, Sporting CP B and C.D. Aves, but spent most of his career in the third division for a variety of teams.

Club career[edit]

Born in Quinta do Conde, Sesimbra, Ribeiro concluded his development at Sporting CP, and was loaned to C.D. Santa Clara on the final day of the January 2015 transfer window.[2] He made his Segunda Liga debut on 8 February, playing 90 minutes a 1–1 home draw against S.C. Farense.[3]

In the 2015–16 season, Ribeiro featured regularly for Sporting's reserves in the same league, scoring his first career goal on 2 April 2016 in a 2–2 draw at F.C. Penafiel.[4] On 31 August, he severed his link with the Lions and signed a two-year contract with C.D. Aves in the second division.[5]

Having played a small role in Aves' promotion as champions in 2017, Ribeiro dropped into the third tier by joining S.U. Sintrense, agreeing to a deal at Primeira Liga club B-SAD in January 2018.[6] He never took to the field for the Estádio Nacional side, being loaned to Clube Olímpico do Montijo and C.D. Fátima in division three.[7]

After a spell in the reserve team, Ribeiro left B-SAD in 2021 for C.U. Idanhense, newly promoted to the fourth division.[8] A year later, after their relegation, he moved abroad for the first time to Racing Rioja CF in the Spanish equivalent.[9]

International career[edit]

Ribeiro earned 12 caps for Portugal from under-18 to under-20 levels. His debut for the latter came on 27 March 2015, when he started the 2–0 friendly win over Uzbekistan at the Estádio Municipal Sérgio Conceição in Coimbra.[10]
