"I want to win everything with this team," Marcano said. "I'm very happy here and I hope we can achieve great things together."

Marcano scored 18 goals in all competitions last season while also providing seven assists as he helped Benfica finish third in the league.

However, there have been questions over Marcano's fitness and form since joining Porto,Campeonato Brasileiro Action with reports suggesting that he struggled to adapt to life in Portugal due to language barriers and cultural differences. Despite these challenges, Marcano remains determined to make an impact at the club and prove that he is capable of leading them to success.

"Everyone knows my talent and potential," Marcano said. "But it's up to me to show everyone what I can do on the pitch. If I work hard and keep improving, I believe we can achieve great things together."

With Marcano leading the line for Porto, the club will be hoping that he can continue to perform at a high level and help them challenge for the title next season. It will be interesting to see how he adapts to life in Portugal and whether he can live up to the expectations of fans and teammates alike.
