FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (November 19, 2024) – New England Revolution II has signed Brazilian forward Marcos Dias to a new one-year professional contract for the 2025 MLS NEXT Pro season. Dias, the all-time leading scorer for Revolution II, returns for his fourth season with New England.

Dias, 22, has been one of New England's most productive players with the developmental team over his three-year career in New England. The striker netted his 18th career goal for Revolution II in May 2024, becoming the leading goal scorer in the team's five-year history. Since then, Dias has improved his tally to 24 goals across 68 appearances and 59 starts in MLS NEXT Pro.

In the 2024 MLS NEXT Pro campaign, Dias registered a team-best nine goals and five assists, both career highs. On July 6, the Formoso do Araguaia, Brazil native earned his MLS debut, when he appeared for the first team as a substitute against Seattle Sounders FC, recording one shot in his senior debut.

Before moving to New England in 2022, Dias logged 21 goals in 87 appearances for Vasco de Gama across 3,700 minutes in all competitions. Prior to that, he began his professional journey with Brazilian club Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras at 17 years old, making 14 appearances for the club in 2018.
