“We work daily to place Corinthians where it deserves to be, which is fighting for titles. I am very happy to contribute to this. I hope we achieve titles in the coming years”, the defender added.

Since joining Timão, the defender has played 56 matches, with a record of 29 wins, 10 draws, and 17 losses, resulting in a success rate of 57.74%. During this period, he contributed with four goals and one assist.

Wearing the number 13 jersey, he was an important part of the campaign for the Campeonato Paulista title, won in Itaquera against Palmeiras. Alongside André Ramalho, he formed the defensive duo that propelled Corinthians' surge in the last edition of the Campeonato Brasileiro, securing a spot in the preliminary phase of the Conmebol Libertadores.

Currently, Gustavo Henrique is experiencing a good moment under the command of Dorival Júnior at Timão. The defender has been a constant starter alongside André Ramalho and stood out in Alvinegro's qualification in the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil, when he scored the team's second goal against rival Palmeiras in the return match, held at Allianz Parque.
