Meet Nadson, the new face in Santos’ squad for the Noroeste clash | OneFootball

At just 17 years old, Nadson was included for the first time in the professional squad of Santos for a match. The young forward is an option for Juan Pablo Vojvoda in the clash against Noroeste and generates great expectations among the alvinegro fans.

Nadson was one of the main names for Peixe in the 2026 São Paulo Junior Football Cup. He played five matches, four as a starter, scored one goal, and provided one assist.

Throughout 2025, he alternated between the under-20 and under-17 teams. In the upper category, he competed in the Copinha (four matches) and the Paulista (two games), a tournament that ended with the Alvinegro Praiano's title. There were two assists, both in the two final games against São Paulo.

In the under-17, he played 27 matches, with six goals and six assists.

Trained in the Santos youth categories since the Under-11, the forward signed his first professional contract shortly after turning 16, in February 2025. The contract is valid until January 23, 2028.

Santos needs to beat Noroeste to breathe in the Paulista Championship. Peixe is in 14th place, with six points, one less than the Bauru team, which is in 13th.
