While making his first steps with FC Porto reserve,[4] Meireles was a regular starter with Porto under-19s in the national competition[5][6] and the UEFA Youth League, as his side that was top of a pool that included AC Milan, Liverpool and Atlético Madrid until the last round, when the Portuguese side eventually missed the knockout phase.[7][8][9][10]

International career
