Signed permanently, Larson makes a bright start to the year at Palmeiras | OneFootball

Palmeiras finalized the permanent signing of Larson, a 20-year-old midfielder who was on loan to the Verdão from Goiás, on Tuesday morning. With a new contract extending until 2030, the midfielder has been one of the positive highlights for the team at the start of the season and, despite playing few games, has accumulated good numbers wearing the green and white jersey.

Out of these five matches, Larson started three as a starter under Abel Ferreira and has lived up to the opportunities. Adding up the games he played for Palmeiras, according to Sofascore, the midfielder has a 100% success rate in long passes (10/10) and an 87% accuracy in passes overall.

Defensively, he contributed with six tackles, 19 duels won, and did not commit any fouls while playing for Verdão. Additionally, he also has three key passes, one of which was crucial for the club's winning goal against Portuguesa in the first round of this year's Paulista Championship.

Career Path

Larson joined Palmeiras on loan for the youth team and quickly caught attention. In the Under-20 team, the player participated in 32 matches, scored three goals, and was the Brazilian champion of the category in 2025. His performance led him to be noticed by Abel Ferreira's coaching staff, who integrated him into the main team's training sessions at the end of 2025.

In the same year, the young player was listed and participated in two matches, one as a substitute and the other as a starter. In 2026, he already accumulated more appearances, being a starter and contributing with a goal against Portuguesa.
