Santos fans optimistic about Frias' season | OneFootball

Adonis Frías arrived at Santos at the beginning of September and quickly became a starter. The defender's performances have been pleasing the fans.

In a poll conducted by Gazeta Esportiva, 47.22% of respondents said the Argentine's performance was "good". Meanwhile, 34.72% voted "average", 11.11% "excellent", 5.56% "poor", and only 1.39% "terrible".

Adonis Frías' Season

Signed amidst the fight against relegation, Frías began his journey at Santos with difficulties: after two matches, he suffered a calf injury and was out for almost a month. His return in October coincided with a 3-0 defeat to Ceará, one of the team's worst performances of the year.

From then on, everything changed. Under the command of Juan Pablo Vojvoda, the Argentine established himself as a key player in defense. Since then, he hasn't lost: there were 13 games, with draws against Botafogo, Fortaleza, Mirassol, and Internacional, and victories over Palmeiras, Sport, Juventude, and Cruzeiro — all without conceding goals.

In the final stretch of the Brasileirão, the defensive solidity was crucial to escape the relegation zone, with three consecutive 3-0 wins. The performance solidified the partnership with Zé Ivaldo and suggests that the duo should start 2026 as a reference in the sector, indicating a more secure Santos after months of instability.
