The forward Jonathan Calleri played a decisive role in São Paulo's comeback victory over Primavera last Saturday in the Campeonato Paulista. In his last contract year, the Argentine converted a penalty and scored the winning goal for the tricolor at Morumbis.

The Argentine's contract with the club is only valid until the end of this season. When asked about a possible renewal, he left the decision in the hands of the board led by Harry Massis.

"That's up to the board. I have to do my part, make myself available to the coach as much as possible, and try to score as many goals as I can for São Paulo, that's what I want most. Then, regarding next year, we'll have to rethink and talk day by day with the board to see what they want and what I want too," he said.

Promising Start

Calleri's 2025 was tumultuous and marked by a severe left knee injury. However, the start of this season is promising.

He has already scored four goals in eight matches played this year. In total, he has 83 goals in 234 games wearing the tricolor jersey. Currently, he is competing for a position with Tapia, as Ryan Francisco and André Silva are recovering from injuries.

Standings Situation

São Paulo now occupies the eighth position in the standings, with ten points. However, Hernán Crespo's team can still be overtaken by Mirassol, who faces Capivariano this Sunday. If the Lion falters, the Tricolor will enter the last round depending only on themselves to advance to the quarterfinals of the State Championship.

  2. Date and time: 02/11 (Wednesday), at 9:30 PM (Brasília time)
  3. Location: Morumbis, in São Paulo (SP)
