Santos is close to finalizing the departure of young right-back JP Chermont. This Friday, the Peixe arranged the loan of the 20-year-old player to Coritiba. The contract will be valid until the end of this year.

JP Chermont had no space in Santos' first team. The player even competed in the São Paulo Junior Football Cup this season and was not being utilized by Juan Pablo Vojvoda’s coaching staff, facing competition from Igor Vinícius and Mayke.

Given the lack of opportunities, the Peixe decided to negotiate the young right-back so he could accumulate more playing time.

The information was initially reported by journalist Lucas Musetti and confirmed by Gazeta Esportiva.

Having come up through Santos' youth academy, JP Chermont was promoted to the first team in 2024 and was a starter for much of the campaign that led to the Série B title in the Brazilian Championship.

For Santos’ first team, JP Chermont has played 50 matches so far, with two goals and five assists.

More Departures

Earlier this Friday, Santos also arranged the loan of forward Tiquinho Soares to Mirassol, also until the end of the year.

Both Tiquinho Soares and JP Chermont said their goodbyes to their Santos teammates on Friday afternoon, shortly before training at CT Rei Pelé.
