Pedro Trigueira

Pedro José da Silva Trigueira (born 4 January 1988) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for AVS Futebol SAD as a goalkeeper.

A product of Porto-based Boavista FC's youth ranks, he was promoted to the first team in 2007, serving a loan at modest G.D. Ribeirão to gain more experience.

His professional debut was made in the 2008–09 season, playing eight matches in the second division as the former club was relegated for the second consecutive year.

Following Boavista's misfortunes, Trigueira signed in summer 2009 with Primeira Liga team Rio Ave FC, but was only third choice in his first year, behind experienced Carlos and Miguel Mora.

[8] Trigueira won the first of his four caps for the Portugal under-21 team on 10 February 2009, coming on as a late substitute in the 3–1 friendly win over Switzerland.
