Departure from Flamengo and arrival at Palmeiras

The 20-year-old joined Verdão at the end of 2025 after terminating his contract with Flamengo. The player had scored the goal that secured the Rio club’s Under-20 World title in 2024.

Despite an inconsistent start, Felipe Teresa has been one of the standout players in Palmeiras’ 2026 Brazilian Under-20 Championship campaign. So far, he has played 15 matches in the competition and scored ten goals.

The midfielder is Alviverde’s top scorer in the Brazilian Championship alongside Heittor. The academy product is under contract until the end of 2027, and Verdão owns 70% of the player’s rights.
