On 18 May he played his first game in the national league, entering at the same point in a 4–1 home win over Cruzeiro.

In the 2019 Copa Sudamericana, Marcos Paulo played seven games as Flu reached the quarter-finals. He scored his first goals on 30 July in the last 1 second leg 3–1 home win over Uruguay's Peñarol (5–2 aggregate). He scored four goals in 24 games in the domestic league that year, "all towards the end of the campaign," starting with the equaliser in a 1–1 home draw with Chapecoense on 26 October; he said after the game that to not win it was a disappointment.
