Moussa Marega Biography
Moussa Marega (born 14 April 1991) is a French-born Malian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Primeira Liga club Porto and the Mali national team.
Born in Les Ulis, Essonne, to Malian parents, Marega began his career at Évry FC, before moving to Vendée Poiré-sur-Vie Football of the Championnat National in 2012, and fellow league team Amiens SC a year later. He spent the second half of 2014 in Espérance Sportive de Tunis, but could not make a single appearance due to bureaucratic problems.
Marega made his debut for the Mali national team on 25 March 2015, in a friendly against Gabon in Beauvais, France; he started in the 4–3 defeat. On 4 September 2016, he scored his first international goal in a 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualification game against Benin, helping towards a 5–2 win at the Stade du 26 Mars.
He subsequently moved to C.S. Marítimo in Portugal’s Primeira Liga in January 2015. In November 2015, he was sent off in a 1–0 loss at Amarante F.C. with two yellow cards and then gestured at the bench; he was suspended from training with the club as a result.
Marega made his international debut for Mali in 2015, and was part of their squad at the Africa Cup of Nations in 2017 and 2019.
He began his career in France, playing no higher than the Championnat National. After one year with Espérance in Tunisia, he moved to Marítimo of the Primeira Liga in 2015. Shortly afterwards, he signed for Porto. After spending 2016–17 on loan at Vitória Guimarães, he became a regular in the Porto side and won a league title.
On 20 July 2016, Marega was loaned to Vitória de Guimarães for the upcoming season. He made his debut a month later in a 2–0 win against his former team, Marítimo, scoring the second goal, and on 30 October, he scored all three goals in a 3–0 win against Rio Ave F.C. to reach 10 goals from 8 games. On 4 November, he received a straight red card in the first half-hour of a 2–1 home win over C.D. Nacional for striking Nuno Sequeira, receiving a three-match ban.
Both Marega and Marítimo goalkeeper José Sá were on the cusp of a move to Sporting Clube de Portugal in January 2016, but it was hijacked by FC Porto, who signed the pair on contracts lasting to 2020; Marega’s buyout clause was set at €40 million. He made 13 appearances in his first campaign at the Estádio do Dragão – mostly as a substitute – and scored once in a 2–0 home win over Gil Vicente F.C. in the Taça da Liga on 2 March. His early poor performances drew vocal criticism from some Porto fans, and he took training from a friend on how to become mentally resilient.
In January 2017, he was called up for Mali’s squad at the final tournament in Gabon. In the Eagles’ opening game against Egypt in Port-Gentil, he was named man of the match in a goalless draw. He also started the other two games of the group stage elimination.
On his return to Porto, Marega scored twice in the opening game of the 2017–18 season, a 4–0 home win over Estoril, as a first-half substitute for Tiquinho. He was part of a three-pronged attack made of African players, alongside the Cameroonian Vincent Aboubakar and Yacine Brahimi of Algeria. He scored 14 league goals in 14 starts, and reportedly began to attract the interest of Premier League sides Manchester United and Chelsea in January 2018. Porto won the league for the first time in five years and Marega was their top scorer (third overall behind Jonas and Bas Dost) with 22 goals.
In November 2018, Marega was awarded the Dragão de Ouro (Golden Dragon) as Porto’s best player of the calendar year. Having not previously scored in a European match, Marega scored a goal in six consecutive appearances in the 2018–19 UEFA Champions League, ending with one in a 3–1 win over A.S. Roma, that put Porto in the quarter-finals for the first time in four years.
Marega was also called up for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt. He scored in their opening game, a 4–1 win over Mauritania, as they made the last 16.
On 16 February 2020, after scoring the winning goal on his return to Vitória, Marega gave the middle finger to the home fans who had been racially abusing him. The insults continued after this incident and in response, he walked out of the game, and was subsequently substituted. His reaction to the abuse was praised by the Portuguese press, with A Bola newspaper giving Marega a perfect 10 rating in its player ratings.
