Last season, it is worth remembering, Corinthians futsal won the Taça São Paulo and the Torneo Internacional Mucho Más, in Spain. On the other hand, they finished as runners-up in the Supercopa Gramado, National League, and Paulista Championship. Across two spells with Alvinegro (2015-2016 and 2018-2025), he won 16 titles – two of them mentioned above.

The others were: Liga Paulista (2015, 2016, 2018 and 2019), Supercopa do Brasil (2019, 2020 and 2021), Copa do Brasil (2018 and 2019), Campeonato Paulista (2019 and 2022), Supercopa Paulista (2019), and Liga Nacional de Futsal (2016 and 2022). At the start of 2026, he even went on a tour with Timão for two friendlies in Japan, as a symbolic farewell, and was honored by Alvinegro supporters’ groups on the other side of the world.
