Geyse Ferreira hits impressive mark in Mexico; see the numbers | OneFootball

At 28, Geyse Ferreira is enjoying a great spell in Mexican football. The Brazilian forward has 15 goals and two assists in nine matches for América, numbers that place her among the top scorers in Liga MX Femenil.

Her consistency has made Geyse’s form even more impressive. The Brazilian scored in the first eight rounds of the 2026 Apertura and set a historic record at América, surpassing a mark that had stood for around 60 years at the club.

The start was overwhelming. Geyse Ferreira scored four times in the 7-0 win over Necaxa, netted twice against Pumas, and was on target again against Tigres and Atlas. In the derby against Tigres, she even scored América’s fourth goal in the 5-2 victory. In the most recent match, against León, the Brazilian international scored twice again in the 5-0 rout.

A résumé that explains just how big this moment is

The breakout in Mexico did not come out of nowhere. Geyse Ferreira already had a major international career behind her. Developed at Centro Olímpico, the forward played for Corinthians before beginning her European journey at Madrid CFF.

She then played for Benfica, returned to Madrid CFF, and moved to Barcelona, where she won La Liga, the Spanish Super Cup, and the Champions League in the 2022/23 season. For the Catalan club, she made 37 appearances and scored 11 goals.

After that, she had spells at Manchester United and Gotham FC, where she won the NWSL and the Concacaf W Champions Cup in 2025. In 2026, she joined América and helped the club win the Clausura and the continental Concacaf title.

A long history in Brazil’s shirt

Her relationship with the national team also goes back a long way. Geyse Ferreira made her senior debut in 2017 at the age of 19, and since then has racked up 57 appearances and eight goals. She took part in the 2019 and 2023 World Cups, the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, and won the 2022 Copa América.

After the 2024 Gold Cup, Geyse Ferreira spent around two years without playing for Brazil. In 2026, she was called up again by Arthur Elias and played 62 minutes in the 2-1 loss to Venezuela on March 4.

She was called up again in June, but did not feature in the friendlies against the United States. Now, that return has gained momentum: Geyse is once again among those selected for the two friendlies against Argentina in October.

What can Geyse Ferreira still deliver?

Her current form in Mexico once again highlights a trait that has always followed the forward: the ability to perform at a high level in different contexts. Geyse Ferreira has already been a standout in Spain, England, the United States, Mexico, and also for the Brazil National Team.

At 28, therefore, she reaches a new stage of her career with international experience, major titles, and attacking output that has once again reached impressive numbers. The next chapter will be in the shirt she has known since 2017.

After a period of reduced involvement with Brazil, Geyse returns to Arthur Elias’s squad in top form. In Mexico, the forward has regained her starring role and now aims to show that she can still contribute to the Seleção.
