Club career
editSporting CP
editBorn in Carcavelos, Cascais, Marques spent much of his childhood at local G.D. Estoril Praia and C.F. Os Belenenses before joining Sporting CP in 2016.[2] On 14 August that year, he made his professional debut with the latter's reserves against S.C. Covilhã, coming on as a 65th-minute substitute for Ricardo Almeida in the 2–1 LigaPro away win.[3] He scored his first goal six days later, in a 2–4 home loss to AD Fafe.[4] He netted twice more over the season, both in a 2–2 draw with Gil Vicente F.C. on 17 September.[5]
Marques made his first-team debut on 13 December 2018 in the last game of the UEFA Europa League group stage at home against Ukraine's FC Vorskla Poltava, playing the last half-hour in place of Fredy Montero.[6] The following 29 March, he was called up for the Primeira Liga match away to G.D. Chaves the next day.[7]
Marques was loaned out on 15 July 2019 to FC Dordrecht of the Dutch Eerste Divisie.[8] The following 22 January, he went to FC Den Bosch in the same league on the same basis.[9] With 14 goals over the course of the campaign before its annulment due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he was fifth among its goalscorers; this included a hat-trick on 21 February 2020, albeit in a 6–4 defeat at Excelsior Rotterdam.[10]
On 23 November 2020, Marques scored his first goals for the main Sporting team in the form of a brace in a 7–1 away victory over SG Sacavenense in the third round of the Taça de Portugal; he only needed 18 minutes to achieve this feat.[11] In February 2021, he joined Gil Vicente on loan until 30 June.[12]
Marques had his first top-flight experience at Gil, scoring five goals over what remained of the season; his first was to open a 4–2 win at Vitória S.C. on 14 March 2021.[13] On 4 August that year he was lent to another team of the same league, F.C. Famalicão.[14]
NEC
editOn 21 June 2022, Marques returned to Dutch football, signing for three years with an option for a fourth one with Eredivisie club NEC Nijmegen.[15] On 13 November, he scored his second and third goals in the country's top tier, in a 6–1 home win over RKC Waalwijk.[16]
Apollon Limassol
editMarques was loaned to Apollon Limassol FC of the Cypriot First Division in September 2023.[17] On 16 May 2024, having totalled 18 goals for the campaign, he joined the club on a permanent two-year contract.[18]
