Pedro Milans joins Corinthians, calls club “highly respected” | OneFootball

Announced by Corinthians last Wednesday, Pedro Milans was officially presented this Saturday at the Dr. Joaquim Grava Training Center, alongside president Osmar Stabile and football executive Marcelo Paz. With a contract valid until the end of 2029, the right-back joins Timão after a stint with Peñarol, from Uruguay.

“I decided to come to Corinthians because it is a big club, with a lot of history. It is highly respected in Uruguay. This year, they are playing in the Copa Libertadores. I have already played in the tournament for two consecutive years with Peñarol and wanted to play with another club, in this case, with Corinthians,” he said.

The player also commented on the club’s facilities and the Timão fans, who surprised him right from his first contact.

“Without a doubt, the complex surprised me. Nothing is missing. The fans surprised me a lot. When I went to the game against São Paulo, I was amazed. The fans are incredible and I can’t wait to get on the field and feel that energy,” he declared.

Corinthians face Velo Clube this Sunday at 8:30 PM (Brasília time), in Rio Claro, for the fifth round of the Paulistão. Pedro Milans is already eligible to make his debut, and the match could mark his first game for the club.
