Marcos Paulo Mesquita "Rony" Lopes (born 28 December 1995) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or right winger for Primeira Liga club Braga.
Born in Belém, Pará, Brazil to a Brazilian father and a Portuguese mother, [3] Lopes moved to Portugal at the age of four. [4] [5]
Lopes played youth football for Benfica from ages 10 to 15, signing for Manchester City in 2011. [6] He was a surprise addition to the first team's pre-season the following year, but had to wait until 7 January 2013 to make his competitive debut, when he came as an 88th-minute substitute for David Silva in a FA Cup third-round tie against Watford and scored the final goal in the 3–0 win, which made him the youngest ever scorer for the club at the age of 17 years and 9 days. [7]
Lopes was a regular for City's Elite Development Squad in the 2012–13 season, and went on to claim the inaugural Academy Player of the Year award after winning a public vote. [8] He was included in the team that featured in the first match of the UEFA Youth League, netting twice in a 4–1 victory at Viktoria Plzeň. [9] He added a hat-trick in the 6–0 home rout of Bayern Munich. [10]
On 21 January 2014, Lopes started against West Ham United in the second leg of the semi-finals of the Football League Cup. In the game, he assisted Sergio Agüero and Álvaro Negredo to a goal each, in a 3–0 away win (9–0 on aggregate). [11]
On 7 July 2014, Lopes was loaned to Lille until the end of the campaign. [12] His maiden appearance in Ligue 1 occurred on 9 August, in a goalless home draw against Metz. [13] He scored his first goal on 14 September, in a 2–0 victory over Nantes also at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy. [14]
Lopes was included in City's squad for their pre-season tour in Australia. [15] On 5 August, he was promoted to the first team alongside Jason Denayer and Kelechi Iheanacho. [16]
On 28 August 2015, Lopes joined Ligue 1 side Monaco for £9 million, [17] sharing teams with a host of compatriots including manager Leonardo Jardim. In early January 2016, he was loaned again to Lille until June. [18]
In July 2016, still owned by Monaco, Lopes re-signed at Lille for one season. [19] He scored a brace in the league opener, but in a 3–2 away loss against Metz. [20]
Lopes scored his first competitive goal for the club on 16 September 2017, when he opened a 3–0 league home defeat of Strasbourg. [21] He started for the first time in the UEFA Champions League on 1 November, and scored in the 1–1 group stage away draw with Beşiktaş. [22]
On 14 August 2019, Lopes signed a five-year contract at Sevilla of the Spanish La Liga in part exchange for Wissam Ben Yedder. [23] In his first season, he appeared in only 14 official matches. [24]
On 29 July 2020, Lopes joined Nice on a season-long loan deal with option to buy. [25] On 16 August 2021, in a similar move, he signed with Olympiacos. [26] He scored his first goal for the latter club on 4 December, in a 3–1 away win against OFI. [27]
Lopes served another loan in the 2022–23 campaign, at Troyes in the French top division. [28]
On 2 August 2023, Lopes signed for Primeira Liga club Braga on a three-year contract and a free transfer, potentially rising to €500,000 depending on clauses being met. [29] He scored his first goal in the competition on 9 September, opening the 3–2 away victory over Moreirense. [30]
Lopes chose to represent Portugal internationally, [31] winning caps at every youth level. [2] He appeared with the under-20 side at the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup, playing all matches in New Zealand and helping his country reach the quarter-finals. [32]
On 5 January 2014, still aged 18, Lopes made his debut with the under-21s, playing roughly 20 minutes in a 2–0 win over Macedonia for the 2015 UEFA European Championship qualifiers. [33] He first appeared with the full side on 14 November 2017, replacing Gonçalo Guedes late in the second half of a 1–1 friendly draw against the United States. [34]
Lopes was named in a preliminary 35-man squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, [35] but did not make the final cut. [36]
