Ricardo Martins Guimarães (born 14 November 1995), commonly known as Guima, is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for TFF First League club Iğdır.

Born in Portugal, he plays for the Mozambique national team.

Club career

Born in Aveiro to a Portuguese father and a Mozambican mother, Guima spent his first five seasons as a senior in the LigaPro, starting out at U.D. Oliveirense. He played his first match in the competition on 27 August 2014, coming on as a late substitute in a 0–1 home loss against S.L. Benfica B.

Guima signed with Sporting CP on 2 July 2016, being assigned to the reserve team. One year later, he joined Académica de Coimbra of the same league on loan. He scored his first goal in the second division on 11 February 2018 in a 4–0 away victory over Gil Vicente FC, being sent off against his former club Oliveirense the following month.

On 27 May 2019, Guima agreed to a three-year contract at ŁKS Łódź. His first game in the Polish Ekstraklasa took place on 3 August, when he played the second half of the 1–2 home defeat to Lech Poznań.

Guima returned to Académica and the Portuguese second tier on 7 September 2020, in a season-long loan. In August 2021, he signed a permanent deal with G.D. Chaves in the same league, scoring once in 20 games in his debut campaign in a promotion to the Primeira Liga via the play-offs.

Guima made his debut in the Portuguese top flight on 7 August 2022, playing 21 minutes of the 0–1 home loss against Vitória de Guimarães.

International career

Guima made his debut for the Mozambique national team on 9 September 2023, scoring in a 3–2 home win over Benin in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
