Duk, full name 'Duk' Henriques Barros Lopes, was born on the 16th of February 2000 in Portugal. Now aged 25, Duk represents Leganes as a forward, primarily specialising in the left winger position. He presents an imposing figure on the field, standing 5 feet 10 inches tall (1.8m) and weighing in at 12 stone 12 pounds (82kg).
The current market value for this forward is approximately £1.07m, as stated by Transfermarkt. As it stands, Duk's stint with Leganes is drawing to a close with his contract set to expire on the 31st of May 2025, only three months away.
In July 2017, Duk began his professional journey in the world of football by joining Benfica B in the Liga Portugal 2 as a trainee. Fast forward to July 2022, after enduring and learning the rigours of this beautiful sport for five years in Portugal, Duk transferred from Benfica B to Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership for a transfer fee of around £400k.
During his debut season in Scotland (2022-2023), Duk made a significant impact with 37 first-team appearances and an impressive total of 16 goals in league matches. The following season (2023-2024) saw Duk continue to establish his presence on the field, making 34 appearances and scoring four goals in league matches. Notably, in the ongoing season, Duk has already made 19 appearances for Aberdeen.
February 2025 marked a new chapter in Duk's football career: a transfer from Aberdeen to Leganes in Spain's La Liga. The move saw a financial exchange of about £600k. Despite the relative newness of his tenure in Spain, Duk has already taken to the field on five occasions in the ongoing season, hinting at a promising future at his new home, Leganes.
