João Mário is one of the most talented and prolific goal scorers in Portuguese football history. He has scored over 400 goals for his club, Benfica, making him one of the all-time greats of the sport.

Mário began his career with hometown club Boavista, where he made his debut in 2011. After impressing scouts, he moved to Sporting CP in 2016, where he continued to make a name for himself as a top scorer.

In 2018, Mário signed for Benfica,Primeira Liga Hotspots where he would go on to score 75 goals in just three seasons. This record-breaking season was particularly impressive, as he scored 27 goals in 27 appearances during the 2019-20 campaign. Mário also set a new club record by scoring 15 goals in a single match against Vitória de Guimarães in October 2020.

Mário's performances have not gone unnoticed, as he has been named Portuguese Footballer of the Year multiple times and has been nominated for the FIFA World Player of the Year award several times. His ability to score from anywhere on the pitch, combined with his technical skill and tactical awareness, makes him a true legend of the game.

As Benfica continues to dominate Portuguese football, it will be interesting to see how long Mário can continue his incredible goal-scoring record. But no matter what happens, there is no doubt that João Mário's legacy will live on for generations to come.
