Futebol Clube do Porto is a Portuguese sports club based in Porto, which is best known for its professional association football team. They played their first match in 1893, but only won their first trophy in 1911. Two years later, Porto began competing in a regional championship, and in 1922 they won the inaugural edition of the Campeonato de Portugal, the first nationwide club competition, to become the first Portuguese champions. In 1934, an experimental two-tier league competition was introduced in Portuguese football; four years later, the first-level Primeira Liga was officially established as the top-tier league championship, from which Porto have never been relegated. Involved in international competitions since 1956, the club beat Bayern Munich in the 1987 European Cup Final to win its first continental silverware.
Porto have won 30 league titles – including an unparalleled series of five consecutive top-place finishes from 1994 to 1999 – and lifted the Taça de Portugal on 20 occasions and 1 Taça da Liga. In addition, they have more Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira trophies (24) than every other winning club combined. Internationally, Porto is the most successful Portuguese club, with a total of seven titles. Former captain João Pinto and striker Fernando Gomes hold the club records for most appearances (587) and goals (352), respectively. In international competitions, these records belong respectively to Vítor Baía (99) and Radamel Falcao (22). Baía is also the club's most successful player, with a total of 25 titles. José Maria Pedroto is the club's longest-serving coach, overseeing 327 matches in nine seasons.
This list includes the honours won by Porto at all levels and all-time statistics and records set by the club, its players and its coaches. The players section includes the club's top goalscorers and those who have made most appearances in first-team competitive matches. It also displays international achievements by players representing Porto, and the highest transfer fees paid and received by the club.
