List of FC Porto players

Vítor Baía has the second-most all-time appearances for Porto (566).

Futebol Clube do Porto is a Portuguese sports club based in Porto, which is best known for the professional football team playing in the country's top-tier league. They played their first match a few days after the club's foundation in 1893,[1] but only began playing competitively in 1911, when they took part and won the first José Monteiro da Costa Cup.[2] Since then, the team has entered and often achieved success in several domestic and international competitions. This list includes all the players that have made at least 100 competitive appearances for the first team, either as a member of the starting eleven or as a substitute.

João Pinto, former right-back and captain, holds Porto's record for most appearances, having played 587 matches during an uninterrupted senior career of 16 years at the club. He is one of only two players with over 500 first-team appearances; the other is former goalkeeper and also captain Vítor Baía, who appeared in 566 matches in 17 seasons. Four other players have made at least 400 appearances; among them is Aloísio, a former Brazilian centre-back who holds the team record for most appearances by a foreign player. Fernando Gomes is Porto's top goalscorer, with 347 goals in 455 appearances. The only other club player with more than 300 goals is Pinga, who scored 314 times in 15 consecutive seasons.

As of 7 October 2018, eight players currently active in the first team have made at least 100 appearances: Héctor Herrera (midfielder, Mexico), Yacine Brahimi (winger, Algeria), Iker Casillas (goalkeeper, Spain), Jesús Corona (winger, Mexico), Danilo Pereira (midfielder, Portugal), Vincent Aboubakar (striker, Cameroon), Óliver Torres (midfielder, Spain) and Maxi Pereira (defender, Uruguay).
