Corinthians has renewed the contract of defender João Pedro Tchoca. The club announced this Tuesday that the young player’s contract, previously valid until December 2026, has been extended until the end of 2030.

The parties had been in talks for the renewal since the middle of this year. Tchoca started the season as a substitute, but earned his place over the course of the year and even had a run as a starter.

Having come up through the club’s youth academy, the defender played 28 matches in 2025. Of these, he started in 24. He scored one goal and provided one assist during this period.

Currently, João Pedro Tchoca is competing for a spot with André Ramalho, Cacá, and Félix Torres. Gustavo Henrique is the only one with undisputed starter status.

To reach the semifinal, Dorival Júnior’s team eliminated Novorizontino, archrival Palmeiras, and Athletico-PR. In addition to the title, Timão is also seeking a spot in the Libertadores in 2026.
