Ricardo Domingos Barbosa Pereira (born 6 October 1993), known simply as Ricardo, is a Portuguese footballer who plays for French club OGC Nice on loan from FC Porto as a winger but also as a full-back.

Born in Lisbon of Cape Verdean descent, Ricardo began playing youth football with local C.F. Benfica, signing in 2010 with Associação Naval 1º de Maio. He moved to Vitória S.C. after only one year, completing his formation with the Guimarães-based club.

On 1 April 2012, Ricardo made his first-team – and Primeira Liga – debut, playing 12 minutes in a 3–1 home win against F.C. Paços de Ferreira. He scored six goals in as many games in the 2012–13 edition of the Portuguese Cup, including the 2–1 winner in the final against S.L. Benfica as the Minho Province side won the tournament for the first time in its history.

On 16 April 2013, before the season was over, Ricardo agreed to join FC Porto on 1 July, moving alongside teammate Tiago Rodrigues. He alternated constantly between the first and the second teams during his early tenure, also being reconverted into a fullback by manager Paulo Fonseca.
