Born in Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto District, Ferreira finished his development at S.L.

Ferreira played 34 matches in the 2016–17 campaign, helping the B team to fourth position in the second division.[4] On 1 July 2017, he joined Leixões S.C. of the same league on a season-long loan,[5] [6] going on make 35 competitive appearances during his spell at the Estádio do Mar.[4]
On 31 August 2018, Ferreira renewed his contract with Benfica until 2023 and was immediately loaned to C.D. Aves.[7] [8] [4] He made his Primeira Liga debut on 27 October, in a 1–2 home loss to C.D. Santa Clara.[9]
On 28 June 2019, Ferreira cut ties with Benfica and signed a four-year deal with Santa Clara also of the Portuguese top tier.[10] [11] During his spell in the Azores, he played second-fiddle to Marco Pereira.[12]
Ferreira joined F.C. Paços de Ferreira on 23 June 2021, agreeing to a three-year contract.[13] He was in goal in both legs of the UEFA Europa Conference League's play-off round against Tottenham Hotspur, keeping a clean sheet in the first match.[14] [15]
Ferreira took part in 37 official games at the Estádio da Mata Real.[16]
On 20 July 2022, Ferreira became the third Portuguese goalkeeper in as many years at Granada CF – recently relegated to the Spanish Segunda División – after Rui Silva and Luís Maximiano, signing a two-year deal.[17] He contributed 11 matches in his first season, in a promotion to La Liga as champions.[18]
Ferreira's first appearance in the top flight took place on 14 August 2023, in a 3–1 defeat at Atlético Madrid.[19] He subsequently lost his starting place to newly-signed Augusto Batalla.[20]
