Ricardo Mangas, born on 19 March 1998 (age 28), is a Portuguese left-back with Monza. He is not a name that needs dressing up for a Celtic audience: a senior professional, left-sided, and with enough end product in his record to be more than a touchline ornament.
His most productive league season came with Boavista in 2020–21, when he scored four goals in 28 appearances. For a full-back, that is a useful return rather than a headline act, and it remains the clearest marker of his attacking contribution.
At Monza in 2026–27, Mangas has made five Serie A appearances and scored once, along with two Coppa Italia appearances. Across all competitions for the club, he has seven appearances and one goal.
Mangas’s career to date has been built around steady top-flight involvement rather than noise. He is a Portuguese left-back whose best spell on paper came at Boavista, with his current work at Monza continuing that practical, senior-level path.
