Ricardo Alves Coelho da Silva (born 25 March 1993) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Iranian club Tractor S.C. as a midfielder.

Club career

[edit]

Belenenses

[edit]

Born in Lourosa (Santa Maria da Feira), Alves played youth football with mainly FC Porto, which he represented from ages 16 to 19 in his second stint. He made his senior debut with C.F. Os Belenenses on 1 August 2012, playing three minutes in a 1–0 home win against S.C. Freamunde in the first round of the Portuguese League Cup.[2]

On 20 January 2013, Alves made his first appearance in the Segunda Liga, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 0–0 home draw with C.D. Santa Clara.[3] In the ensuing summer he was loaned to Portimonense S.C. in the same league,[4] which he later considered to be a "step back" in his career.[5]

Olimpija

[edit]

In the summer of 2015, after a short spell in Romania with FC Rapid București,[6] Alves signed with NK Olimpija Ljubljana from the Slovenian PrvaLiga. He made his debut in top-flight football on 8 August, starting and scoring in a 2–0 away victory over NK Krško.

Alves and his team won the double in the 2017–18 campaign, with the player contributing a career-best ten league goals to the feat[7] and adding one and two assists in the final of the domestic cup against NK Aluminij (6–1 in Ljubljana).[8]

Later career

[edit]

On 6 September 2018, Alves joined Russian Premier League club FC Orenburg.[9] On 2 October 2020, his contract was terminated by mutual consent;[10] he remained in the country nonetheless, moving to Football National League side PFC Krylia Sovetov Samara in February 2021.[11]

Alves agreed to an 18-month contract with FC Kairat on 13 July 2021.[12] One year later, he left for the Persian Gulf Pro League with Tractor SC.[13]

International career

[edit]

Alves was part of the Portugal squad at the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup held in Turkey, playing three matches in an eventual round-of-16 exit.[14][15][16]
