Crafted from the bountiful football elevens of Portugal, the central defender Francisco Reis Ferreira, most commonly known as 'Ferro', was born on the 26th of March, 1997. As of the current time, he is 28 years of age. This determined defender plies his trade at Estrela Amadora, where he stands out on the pitch with his number 4 jersey. Possessing an imposing physical stature, Ferro's height lies at around 6ft 3in (1.91m) and he tips the scales at around 13 stone (83kg).
According to Transfermarkt, this proficient player commands a market value of around €700,000, which constitutes approximately £595,000 when converted to British pounds (Transfermarkt) .
