Born in Piracicaba, São Paulo, Ferreira began his career with hometown side XV de Piracicaba. After a quick spell at Guarani as a performance analyst, he joined São Paulo's youth sides in 1995.
In 2000, after spending three years with the youth teams, Ferreira was named assistant coach of Internacional; in 2002, he was named interim after the dismissal of Ivo Wortmann. He won that year's Campeonato Gaúcho and was permanently appointed as head coach on 4 June 2002,[1] but was still sacked on 26 August.[2]

Ferreira was dismissed on 6 June 2013,[13] and on 28 July he was named Portuguesa head coach, with the side seriously threatened with relegation.[14] He managed to finish 12th with the club, but the side ultimately suffered relegation due to irregularly fielding in a player; in the following February, he resigned.[15]
