Check Artur's stats, São Paulo's new signing | OneFootball

São Paulo announced the signing of forward Artur last Saturday. The player joins Tricolor on loan from Botafogo until the end of this year, with an option to buy.

Artur’s numbers in a Botafogo shirt are reasonable. The 28-year-old arrived at Glorioso in 2025 and played 60 matches for the Rio de Janeiro side, scoring ten goals and providing five assists.

According to Sofascore, a platform specialized in statistics, the forward created 12 big chances during the period, in addition to delivering 68 key passes, completing 63 dribbles, and winning 181 duels. He was unable to establish himself in the team and alternated between the starting lineup and the bench.

Before playing for Botafogo, Artur featured for Russia’s Zenit. In 35 matches for the European club, the forward scored seven goals and provided two assists.

The player’s peak came in a Red Bull Bragantino shirt, where he made 170 appearances. He scored 38 goals and provided 32 assists for Massa Bruta. Across three spells at Palmeiras, the club that developed him, his numbers are modest: just ten goals and two assists in 51 matches.

Artur, who arrived in the city of São Paulo last Saturday, reunited with coach Roger Machado at São Paulo. The two worked together at Palmeiras in 2018 and at Bahia in 2019, the year they won the state title together.

The forward is Tricolor’s sixth signing for the 2026 season. In addition to Artur, the club also signed Danielzinho, Carlos Coronel, Matheus Dória, Lucas Ramon, and Cauly.
