Christian Fernandes Marques (born 15 January 2003) is a professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Swiss Super League club Yverdon-Sport. Born in Switzerland, he is a Portugal youth international.[1][2]
Career
[edit]Before the second half of 2018–19, Marques joined the youth academy of English Premier League side Wolves.[3][4][5][6][7] In 2021, he was sent on loan to B-SAD in Portugal.[8] However due to a lack of game time at the Portuguese club, Marques was recalled by Wolves and given more game time in their U23's setup for the remaining season.
On 1 September 2022, Wolves loaned out Marques to newly promoted League One side, Forest Green Rovers for the 2022–23 season.[9] On 6 September 2022, Marques made his English Football League debut playing 90 minutes for Forest Green in a 2–1 victory over Accrington Stanley.[10] Having suffered a "long-term injury", Marques returned to his parent club on 12 December 2022.[11]
On 7 September 2023, Marques signed a two-year contract with Yverdon-Sport.[12]
