João Mário Naval da Costa Eduardo (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈʒwɐ̃w̃ ˈmaɾju]; born 19 January 1993) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Italian club Internazionale and the Portugal national team as a midfielder.
He started out at Sporting in whose youth system he grew, being loaned to Vitória de Setúbal in 2014 and subsequently returning to be an important part of the squads that won major trophies, including the 2015 Portuguese Cup.
João Mário made his senior debut for Portugal in 2014. He appeared for the nation at Euro 2016, winning the tournament.
Following a brief youth spell with local FC Porto in his hometown, João Mário moved to Sporting Clube de Portugal in 2004 at the age of 11, going on to complete his formation with the Lisbon club. On 14 December 2011 he was called for a UEFA Europa League group stage game away against S.S. Lazio, alongside youth graduates Betinho, Ricardo Esgaio, Tiago Ilori and João Carlos, as the Lions had already secured the first place in its group: he entered the pitch in the 76th minute of the 0–2 away loss, after replacing Oguchi Onyewu.
