Since then, the midfielder has accumulated 301 matches, 29 goals, 33 assists, and decisive contributions, as well as remarkable titles. Among his achievements are:

• Campeonato Carioca: 2022 and 2023

• Copa Libertadores da América: 2023

• Recopa Sul-Americana: 2024

More than just the numbers, Ganso played a fundamental role in the technical reorganization of Fluminense in recent years, being the player with the longest tenure at Fluminense in the current squad.

In a tribute by the club on FluTV, Ganso also celebrated the milestone and expressed gratitude for the journey he has built at the club, as well as looking ahead to the continuation of his story with the tricolor jersey.

— As long as I am here, able to enjoy wearing this jersey, I want to make the most of it. I didn’t choose Fluminense, Fluminense chose me, and I am grateful for that, for having been chosen and for being part of a bit of the club’s history. There is more to achieve with Fluminense. It is an honor for me to wear this jersey every day. Seven years have flown by and I hope to enjoy every second while I am here, wearing this jersey, enjoying life and being happy, which is the most important thing — he said.

At 36 years old, the number 10 remains one of the leaders of the squad and a technical reference both on and off the field, maintaining his importance in the team and reinforcing his name among the idols of the tricolor fans.
