Keno, key assist maker, bids farewell to Fluminense: “Unforgettable Maracanã 2023” | OneFootball

The forward Keno officially bid farewell to Fluminense through social media. The player arrived in Curitiba last Monday to sign a loan contract until the end of 2026, which also marks the end of his contract with the Tricolor.

The clubs reached an agreement last weekend, and on Sunday, after the victory in the Fla-Flu, Keno said goodbye to his teammates still in the locker room.

In his farewell message, the forward thanked the club and recalled memorable moments wearing the tricolor jersey.

— With a peaceful heart and a sense of accomplishment, I say goodbye to Fluminense, a wonderful club that opened its doors to me and my family. We will be eternally grateful for everything we experienced here. It was three seasons of great commitment, dedication, professionalism, learning, and extremely special achievements, both on and off the field. I will never forget that afternoon in 2023 at Maracanã, when we won the Libertadores. It was incredibly beautiful! — wrote the player.

Keno joined Fluminense at the beginning of 2023 as a reinforcement for the team that had finished the previous year's Brazilian Championship in third place. Under the command of Fernando Diniz, he quickly became a starter and was an important piece in the victories of the Campeonato Carioca, the Libertadores, and the Recopa Sudamericana.

In total, the forward played 133 matches, scored 15 goals, and provided 20 assists wearing the tricolor jersey. Two of these assists are among the most memorable in the club's recent history: it was Keno who assisted the goals of Germán Cano and John Kennedy in the 2023 Libertadores final, which secured the unprecedented title for Fluminense.
