List of FC Porto records and statistics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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 31 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. The club's attendance records since moving to the Estádio das Antas in 1952 and to the Estádio do Dragão in 2004 are also included. All figures are updated as of match played on 3 August 2024.

Honours

Porto won the inaugural Taça José Monteiro da Costa tournament in 1911, securing its first-ever trophy.[1] Three years later, the club clinched the first of a total of 30 regional championship titles.[2] In 1922, their regional success expanded to a national level, after victory in the inaugural staging of the Campeonato de Portugal crowned Porto as the first Portuguese champions.[3] The club then won its first Primeira Liga title in 1934–35,[4] when it was still a provisional competition, and again in 1938–39, when it became the official domestic top-tier championship.[5] In 1955–56, Porto lifted the Taça de Portugal for the first time,[6] and in doing so secured their first league and cup double.[7] The following season saw the club's international stage premiere in the European Cup.[8] Thirty years later, Porto beat Bayern Munich in the 1987 European Cup Final to win their maiden European silverware.[9] The following season brought the club further successes in the UEFA Super Cup and Intercontinental Cup.[10][11] Since taking their first Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira title in 1981, Porto have a record of 24 wins in 34 appearances, more than any other winner combined.[12]

As of 9 May 2026, Porto have won a total of 87 titles (regional competitions not considered), of which 80 were achieved domestically and 7 were obtained in international competitions. The club's most recent honour is the 2025–26 Primeira Liga.[13]
