Pepê makes FC Porto history, now club's third most-capped Brazilian | OneFootball

Pepê has officially secured a prominent place in FC Porto’s history. The Brazil international has surpassed Fernando, now totaling 237 appearances for the Dragons, and has become the third Brazilian player with the most matches ever for the blue-and-white club.

This record highlights Pepê’s importance in FC Porto’s recent journey. Since arriving at the Dragão, the player has been a regular presence in the first team, standing out for his versatility in attack and his ability to perform various roles out wide and in more central areas of the pitch.

By overtaking Fernando, a former defensive midfielder who also left a significant mark on the club, Pepê moves up another level among the Brazilians with the greatest competitive longevity in service of the blue and whites. It is a notable figure at a club with a long tradition of influential and decisive Brazilian players.

This fact also confirms the forward’s competitive consistency in recent seasons, in a spell marked by regular use and growing importance within the FC Porto squad.

Pepê therefore adds another individual achievement to his career at the club, now holding sole possession of third place on this list among the Brazilian players with the most appearances for FC Porto.
