Three Corinthians players under fire from fans in 2025 | OneFootball

The Corinthians experienced a season with more highs than lows in 2025, but the club also went through negative moments. On one hand, some players stood out positively, while others became known for negative marks and received various criticisms from the alvinegro fans. Gazeta Esportiva has therefore selected some of the athletes who were the targets of many negative comments.

Félix Torres

Félix Torres was one of the most criticized names by the Corinthians fans in 2025. When he was signed, there was high expectation from the fans since he was the starting center-back for the Ecuadorian national team. He did not live up to expectations and started last season under suspicion, but still with the hope that he could deliver. However, the defender made many individual mistakes and almost cost Timão a title.

In the second leg of the Paulista Championship final, at Neo Química Arena, Félix Torres committed a penalty on Vitor Roque at the 28th minute, when the title was in Corinthians' hands. Luckily for the Ecuadorian, Hugo Souza stepped up and saved Raphael Veiga's penalty. The Ecuadorian, however, almost threw it all away again by being sent off around the 30th minute. Timão, even with one man down, held on to the result.

In the other games of the season, Félix Torres was far from establishing himself. At one point, the defender was even played out of position as a right-back and did reasonably well, but it was clear he was not comfortable in the role. As a center-back, he played very little under Dorival Júnior. He started against Juventude, when the coach fielded a completely reserve team, and was remembered for a moment when he stepped on the ball and almost allowed a dangerous attack from the rival.

Talles Magno

Talles Magno was also another name extremely criticized by the Corinthians fans. The forward had a good start to the season and was even the top scorer for Timão in the Paulista Championship, alongside Yuri Alberto, but he could not maintain the same level of performance as the year went on and became known for missing great chances.

Talles found the net five times in the Paulistão and was an important piece in the state title campaign. However, the number 43 faced competition from Yuri Alberto and Memphis and, later, from Gui Negão and Dieguinho. When he took the field, he did not deliver, making many mistakes in passes, dribbles, and decision-making. His last moment in a Corinthians shirt, in fact, was a missed clear chance in the match against Juventude.

The forward was on loan to Corinthians from New York City FC and had a contract with the alvinegro team only until the end of last year. Last Saturday, Timão announced the player's departure, who said goodbye to the fans and thanked them for his time at the club.

Hugo

Left-back Hugo Farias also did not escape criticism in 2025. Despite playing little — just 20 matches in the year — the defender did not please the alvinegro fans. He did not make major individual mistakes that led to opponent goals, but he faced competition from Angileri and Matheus Bidu, becoming the third option at left-back.

At a certain point in the season, the full-back was even tested as a defensive midfielder by the coaching staff, but again fell short of expectations. The player finished the season without goals or assists, not even fighting for a starting spot. For now, however, he is expected to remain at Corinthians, as he has a contract until the end of 2026.
