Ricardo Dinanga

Biography

Ricardo returns to the SEAH Stadium on loan for the 2025/26 campaign.

Following a scintilating start to the 2024/25 season, Ricardo was snapped up by Shrewsbury Town in January 2025. But with his opportunities limited at the Shrews, Ricardo returned the Bucks on loan in August 2025.

Irish winger Ricardo first joined the Bucks in July 2023 after leaving Coventry City.

Ricardo began his career with Cork City, where he impressed as a teenager, scoring two goals in nine games. This earned him a two-year deal at Coventry.

A regular for Coventry’s U23s during his time with the Sky Blues, Dinanga was part of the team that won the Professional Development League Final in May 2022 before spending time on loan at Hereford and Nuneaton in the 2022/23 season.

Ricardo, who has dual citizenship with the Democratic Republic of Congo, joined the Bucks for pre-season in 2023, and his pre-season performances earned him a deal for the 2023/24 season. Ricardo went on to deliver some electrifying moments as both a provider and a scorer in the Bucks’ second-placed finish, and he signed a new deal to return to the club in July 2024.
