Marcos Aoás Corrêa, known worldwide as Marquinhos, was born on 14 May 1994 and has grown into one of modern football's most respected centre-backs. As captain of both Paris Saint-Germain and the Brazil national team, he combines calm composure with fierce defensive intelligence. For collectors and fans on Walkouts the combination of his on‑field leadership and longevity makes signed shirts and authenticated memorabilia especially desirable.
Marquinhos began his senior career with Corinthians, featuring in the squad that won the 2012 Copa Libertadores. He moved to Roma on loan in July 2012 where his performances over a single Serie A season established him as a fast, composed defender capable of playing at the highest level. A year later he joined Paris Saint-Germain in July 2013 and swiftly became an important presence in the squad.
At PSG Marquinhos developed from promising teenager into pillar of the back line, contributing across numerous domestic campaigns and European runs. He featured in PSG's first UEFA Champions League final appearance in 2020 and, after succeeding Thiago Silva as club captain in September 2020, led the side through a period of sustained success. His leadership culminated in captaining PSG to their inaugural UEFA Champions League victory in the 2024-25 season, completing a continental treble with the club's domestic crown.
Marquinhos' honours with PSG are extensive, and include a record collection of domestic titles, notably 10 Ligue 1 titles and a host of domestic cups, alongside the Champions League. He also ranks as the club's all‑time appearance leader with over 450 matches, a testament to his consistency and fitness across more than a decade in Paris.
Internationally he made his full Brazil debut on 17 November 2013, and has represented his country at multiple Copa América tournaments and FIFA World Cups. Key highlights include Olympic gold with Brazil at the 2016 Olympic Games and starting roles in triumphant campaigns such as the 2019 Copa América. He remains a regular leader for the Seleção, bringing the same tactical discipline that defines his club game.

Verified provenance increases desirability among fans seeking merchandise and collectibles that reflect definitive career milestones.
Looking ahead, Marquinhos' legacy will be defined by his leadership, versatility and trophy haul. His disciplined style and trophy record make memorabilia such as signed shirts and authenticated items meaningful additions to any collection.
