Forward Talles Magno is enjoying a positive spell in his career and once again proved decisive for New York City FC in the United States. On the night of last Wednesday (22), the former Corinthians player scored one of the goals in a 4-4 draw against FC Cincinnati, in a match valid for the ninth round of Major League Soccer.

The Brazilian started the match on the bench, but needed little time to make his mark. Brought on in the second half, he found the net just seven minutes after coming onto the field, contributing to the New York side’s result and confirming the strong form he has shown throughout the season.

With the goal, Talles Magno now has four goals in his last three matches and has five in ten games this year. His recent performances reinforce his importance to the squad and highlight his positive run in American soccer.

The draw leaves New York City FC in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with 12 points, just three behind third place. The team returns to action next Saturday (25), when it faces CF Montréal away from home, again in league play.

Talles Magno is under contract with the North American club and played on loan for Corinthians between August 2024 and December 2025. During that period, the deal was renewed, but at the end of the second spell, the black-and-white club’s board chose not to extend the forward’s stay.

The start of his spell at the São Paulo club was positive. Under Ramón Díaz, the player finished as one of the team’s top scorers in the Campeonato Paulista alongside Yuri Alberto, with five goals in the campaign that ended with the title against Palmeiras. However, with the arrival of Dorival Júnior, the situation changed. Talles Magno began receiving fewer opportunities and gradually lost space in the team over the course of the season.

In total, the forward played 67 matches in a Corinthians shirt, scored nine goals, and provided seven assists, in addition to being part of the squads that won the Campeonato Paulista and the Copa do Brasil in 2025.
