“This Saturday, the FilhosDoTerrão Under-16 and Under-17 teams hosted Vissel Kobe from Japan at the base training center for two friendly matches, where they faced opponents from a higher category.”, wrote the youth team's Instagram profile.

These commitments are part of the preparation for Corinthians' youth teams for the 2026 season.
