Marco Miguel Gonçalves Ramos (born 26 April 1983) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a left back.

Football career

Born in Levallois-Perret, Hauts-de-Seine, Ramos began playing football with AS Monaco FC, reaching the club's youth academy at the age of 15. During his two-year spell with the first team he saw very little playing time, being barred at the full-back positions by Patrice Evra and Hugo Ibarra; he was also loaned to US Créteil-Lusitanos in Ligue 2 for the 2004–05 season, being released by Monaco at its closure.

After another season in the second level, with LB Châteauroux, Ramos signed for RC Lens, where he would experience the most steady period of his career, being a starter in three of his five years and notably contributing with 35 games (33 starts) as the Sang et Or returned to Ligue 1 after winning the 2009 division two championship, being included in the Team of the Year.

Midway through 2010–11 Ramos joined S.C. Braga of Portugal, on a two-year contract.[1][2] During his stint with the Minho side, his output consisted of a match against F.C. Arouca for the campaign's domestic League Cup (70 minutes played, 4–0 away win).[3]

On 27 July 2012, Ramos returned to his country of birth and joined division two club AJ Auxerre for two seasons.[4]

International Career

Ramos was born in France to parents of Portuguese descent. He has represented the Portugal U19s.[5]
