João Marques, born on 13 February 2002 (age 24), is a Portuguese left winger now with SC Braga. Transfermarkt values him at around £2.5m.
Most of the substance in his senior career so far came at Estoril, where he made 43 league appearances over two seasons and scored five goals. His best league return came in 2023–24, with five goals in 32 appearances, giving him the kind of regular football that tends to tell us more than any tidy scouting label.
At Braga, his first-team record is still at an early stage. In 2026–27 he has made three UEFA U21 appearances, which also accounts for his three appearances across all competitions for the club.
Marques’ career to date is a straightforward one: Estoril gave him his platform, Braga are the next step, and his wider profile is still being built.
