Career report
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Peak: 2023/24Trending downBreakout: 2023/24StreakyInjury-hit 2025/264 clubs
The record covers 6 seasons (2020/21–2025/26) across 4 clubs, including a move abroad — 123 appearances with 2 goal contributions from defence.
His best campaign on record is 2023/24 at Atletico-MG — Season rating 47, 1 goal and 0 assists in 27 games. 2023/24 was the leap — Season rating up 40 points at Atletico-MG. Form has slipped 44 Season points across his last 3 full seasons. The gap to his peak is 44 Season points.
2025/26 was disrupted — 6 fixtures missed through injury or absence. A streaky profile — form has swung hard between campaigns (spread of ±16 points), so the peak and the trough are far apart.
