Talisman? Charles boasts impressive record at Corinthians, check it out | OneFootball

Midfielder Charles has become something of a lucky charm for Corinthians in 2025. After scoring the winning goal in the 1-0 victory over Vitória last Saturday (25th), at Barradão, the player reinforced an impressive record: Timão has lost only once in 32 matches with him on the field this season — in the 2-1 defeat to Juventude in the Brasileirão.

Charles has established himself as a valuable asset for Dorival Júnior. The midfielder, who joined the club last season, has posted eye-catching numbers: 19 wins, 12 draws, and just one loss with him on the pitch in 2025.

In addition to his defensive contributions, the player has also been making appearances in attack — the goal scored against Vitória was his second of the season and his most decisive so far, securing Corinthians’ second consecutive win in the championship.

The midfielder’s good form also reflects the team’s collective improvement. Against Vitória, Charles came on in the second half and showed his presence in the box by heading the ball into the back of the net in the 41st minute of the final period. The play secured all three points.

With the result, Corinthians reached 39 points, climbed to ninth place, and moved away from the relegation zone. Now, the team returns to the field next Sunday (2nd), at 4pm (Brasília time), against Grêmio, at the Neo Química Arena.
