A statistical analysis released by the Sportv channel reinforces Rayan’s status as one of the biggest prospects in Brazilian football. Comparing his performance in 2025 with that of Endrick and Estêvão from Palmeiras in previous seasons shows that the Vasco da Gama striker not only belongs in the same league, but actually has better numbers than one of them.
The analysis by the Tá na Área program placed the three young talents side by side, comparing their standout seasons. The data shows that Rayan, in 2025, scored 15 goals in 45 games. This number is identical to Estêvão in 2024, who also scored 15 goals in 45 matches.
The comparison with Endrick is even more favorable to Vasco’s “homegrown” talent. The Real Madrid gem, in his standout season in 2023, scored 14 goals in 53 games, one goal less than Rayan in eight more matches.

The statistical analysis serves as powerful validation for the Vasco board’s strategy. The club has been tough in the market and is betting on the continued appreciation of Rayan, rejecting offers it considers below the player’s potential. The direct comparison with players who have commanded astronomical figures in the market proves that the Vasco striker is, in fact, a world-class asset.
His on-field performance, now translated into numbers, shows that Rayan is not just a prospect, but a reality that is solidifying with each match as one of the most promising strikers of his generation.
