Career

A graduate of Physical Education at the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná, Ferreira joined Paraná Clube in 2012, as an analyst.[1] In the following year, he was named manager of the under-17 squad, and worked with the side until 2015, when he was named assistant manager of the main squad.[1]

Ferreira worked with the under-15 squad during the 2016 campaign, and joined J. Malucelli for the 2017 season, as an assistant.[1] He returned to Paraná in 2018, being initially in charge of the under-11, under-12 and under-13 squads.[1]

Ferreira was later appointed as the youth football coordinator before being named at the helm of the under-19s in February 2019.[2] Ahead of the 2021 season, he returned to the main squad, again as an assistant.

On 21 July 2021, Ferreira was named interim manager of the first team, after Maurílio Silva was dismissed.[3] He returned to his previous role after the appointment of Sílvio Criciúma, but was definitely appointed manager of the side on 31 August, as Criciúma was sacked.[4]
