Yuri Alberto hits 200 games for Corinthians, joins elite striker group | OneFootball

Even in the defeat of Corinthians 1-0 to Ceará, last Sunday, during the 33rd round of the Brazilian Championship, Yuri Alberto had a reason to celebrate. The forward reached the milestone of 200 games wearing the Timão jersey.

With this achievement, Yuri Alberto became the 24th player of the 21st century to reach the mark of 200 matches for Corinthians. The ranking is led by goalkeeper Cássio, with 712 matches, followed by right-back Fagner (578) and former defender Gil (444).

The number 9 also became the fifth forward to reach this significant number at the club this century. Besides him, this list includes Ángel Romero (374), who has the highest number among current squad players, Jô, Jorge Henrique, and Gil.

Yuri Alberto's Season

In 2025, Yuri Alberto experienced his most remarkable moment with the Corinthians jersey. Timão defeated their rival Palmeiras in the final and lifted the Paulista Championship. The forward was decisive for the title by scoring the only goal of the match, in the first game, at Allianz Parque.

Despite the victory, Yuri has been experiencing fluctuations and has had moments of ups and downs. The main moment, of course, was the goal that secured the Paulista title. However, another situation that stood out, this time negatively, was the chipped penalty against Flamengo, saved by goalkeeper Rossi.

This year, Yuri Alberto has scored 16 goals and provided two assists in 51 matches. He is the team's top scorer of the season, with seven more goals than Memphis Depay.
