Bruno Miguel Fernandes Ribeiro (born 22 October 1975) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a midfielder, and a current manager. His main asset was a powerful left-foot strike, and he spent most of his career playing for Vitória de Setúbal, also having a four-year abroad spell in England. He amassed Primeira Liga totals of 198 games and eight goals over the course of 11 seasons, also representing in the competition União de Leiria, Beira-Mar and Santa Clara. ==Playing career== Ribeiro was born in Setúbal. After making his professional debuts with hometown's Vitória FC in 1994 he was signed by Leeds United manager George Graham three years later, and was a key component of the rebuilding exercise that the latter had been brought in to do. Injured at the start of the 1998–99 season he never really regained his place under new boss David O'Leary, and was eventually transferred to Sheffield United in October 1999 for £500,000, where he scored once against West Bromwich Albion. In January 2001 Ribeiro returned to Portugal, on loan to U.D. Leiria, before moving to S.C. Beira-Mar in the 2001–02 campaign. The following season he joined Azores' C.D. Santa Clara and suffered top flight relegation, subsequently rejoining Vitória with whom he started his professional career, with the club now playing in the second division, and contributing with 27 games (one goal) as it was immediately promoted back. Aged almost 34, Ribeiro gradually lost his importance in the squad – only 28 appearances in his last two years combined, even though he scored the 1–0 winner against Sporting Clube de Portugal on 24 February 2008, with a long-range effort– being loaned (initially) for 2009–10 to lowly G.D. Chaves, in the second level; however, after Manuel Fernandes was reinstated as club coach, the player returned to the squad starting in January 2010, contributing with seven games as the ''Sadinos'' once again barely avoided relegation and retiring shortly after. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bruno Ribeiro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
