The athlete needed little time to earn Abel Ferreira's trust and, as soon as he was available, he was used in the team and secured a spot among the starters. As soon as he arrived at Verdão, the number 8 was called up again to the Brazilian National Team and was included for the first time in Carlo Ancelotti's list.

Although he did not play in the national team's fixture, Andreas aims to consolidate himself in the Palmeiras team in 2026 to keep dreaming of a spot in the World Cup, which will be held in June.

For Palmeiras, Andreas Pereira played 20 matches, 16 as a starter. Additionally, he scored two goals and provided one assist. According to Sofascore data, the midfielder also had 20 shots, eight on target, and created three big chances.

In terms of defense, he made 14 tackles, 11 interceptions, and won 18 aerial duels. He was also responsible for blocking two shots. Finally, he received five yellow cards and one red card.

Andreas was a long-standing dream for Palmeiras

Palmeiras had been eyeing Andreas since the end of 2024 and, at that time, had already tried to sign him, but faced the player's desire to stay in Europe. However, by mid-year, with less playing time in the English team, the midfielder accepted the offer to join the São Paulo club.
