Porto achieved a great victory in their objective to advance to the Champions League round of 16, after defeating Olympique Marseille 2-0. Jesús Corona, known as Tecatito, completed the game and play a decent match. The more important thing for him is that he entered the history.

Corona played his 31st Champions League game for Porto, being the 20th player in the history of the Portuguese side who played the more. With that numbers he transformed himself into a complete legend of the club, as there are only 19 players who had more appearances than him in the most important competition in Europe.

During the last months it was said that Corona may leave Porto, as the club has debts and was facing a complicated financial problem. But after all, it seems that he will be staying for now, even though we can’t yet affirm that will be happening but yes that it looks like.

Corona was born at Monterrey and move to FC Twente on August 2013 for $4 million. On August 2015, after two years at the Dutch side, he left to Porto in a transaction closed for more than $11 million. Now, his reported value is of $30 million and that is the fortune that they could be asking for him.
