PAOK FC

He signed a one-year contract on loan, but PAOK FC had an option to buy him out after its expiration.[1] Marcos Antonio scored the first goal for PAOK in the 2008–09 Greek Superleague in his first appearance. He finished the season at PAOK and then returned to Auxerre.

In April 2009, Marcos António was diagnosed with throat cancer.[2] He had first complained about a sore throat two months earlier, but did not discover the cause until his wife insisted that he visit an otolaryngologist.[3]

Belenenses

In January 2010, he left Auxerre and returned to Portugal, where he signed for Os Belenenses.[3][4]

FC Rapid Bucureşti

Marcos António scored two goals in a 5–0 win against FC Petrolul Ploieşti in the Romanian Cup. He scored another goal in a 2–0 win against FC Sportul Studențesc in the Liga I.

Johor Darul Ta'zim

In April 2014, he signed a contract with Johor Darul Ta'zim F.C. to replace Baihakki Khaizan in their defence. He played for his new club in a home game against title rival, Pahang, in the FA Cup semi-final first leg, keeping the visitor's forward, Dickson Nwakaeme, at bay. He almost got his first goal for his new club, but his header on the far post was not on target.
