The "Liga Revelação" 2023/2024 lived up to its name and, as usual, revealed some surprising names this season. Within the structures of Sporting, Estoril and Benfica, few would say that their goal scorers would be Rodrigo Marquês, Rodrigo Ramos and José Melro. None of them has an eye-popping physical profile and all of them did most of their training as attacking midfielders, "second forwards" or wingers but have specialized as goalscorers in the under-23 team, even if the areas they occupy are not exactly those of the "9" position. This is not a unique case and we only have to go back a season to remember that Afonso Rodrigues, a winger from Famalicão who now plays for Paços de Ferreira, stood out as the competition's top scorer.
