Palmeiras set to loan striker to Série B club | OneFootball

One of the highlights of Palmeiras' Under-20 team in the São Paulo Junior Football Cup, the forward Sorriso is close to leaving Verdão.

Loan Arranged

NOSSO PALESTRA has learned that Avaí, which will compete in Serie B in 2026, has negotiations underway to sign the Academy's talent on a one-season loan without a purchase option. Criciúma and Juventude approached Verdão, but the talks did not progress.

Sorriso was one of Palmeiras' standouts in the 2026 Copinha with five goals and four assists in seven matches and was close to signing with FC Baniyas from the United Arab Emirates, but Alviverde had reached the FIFA limit for international loans.

Career at Palmeiras

At the club since 2024, the Copinha played a crucial role in the athlete's career. Sorriso caught Verdão's attention after standing out in the 2024 competition for Atlético Guaratinguerá, signing a contract with the alviverde club after the tournament ended.

The forward had no trouble adapting, playing 44 and 45 matches in the 2024 and 2025 seasons, respectively. In 2025, he had his most prolific year, scoring 11 goals – compared to 10 in 2024.
