Career, stats and more: who is Lucas Ramon, set to join São Paulo | OneFootball

São Paulo is very close to confirming another signing for the 2026 season — it is Lucas Ramon, who is expected to sign a two-year contract. The Tricolor had already signed a pre-contract with the player and reached an agreement with Mirassol for his immediate release.

Lucas Ramon even went to the SuperCT last Monday to undergo medical exams and sign a contract with the Morumbis club. He is very close to being announced as the new addition to the Tricolor and is expected to start training with the team this Tuesday, according to the report.

The right-back will be São Paulo's fourth signing this season. São Paulo has already announced midfielder Danielzinho, defender Matheus Dória, and goalkeeper Carlos Coronel.

Who is Lucas Ramon?

Born in Montes Claros (MG), Lucas Ramon, 32, took his first steps in football in his hometown but was quickly signed by Londrina to strengthen the youth categories. After standing out in the under-20s, the right-back made his professional debut in 2014, in a 2-1 victory over Criciúma, in the first phase of the Copa do Brasil.

The defender's performance caught the attention of Grêmio, which signed him on loan in 2015. He had little space at the Gaucho club and was loaned again, this time to Santa Cruz, still in the same year. After a frustrating stint with few opportunities, he was returned to Londrina.

In 2018, Lucas Ramon was loaned to Novorizontino at the start of the season and, the following year, joined Red Bull Bragantino permanently. However, the right-back did not establish himself and collected loans to other clubs, such as Coritiba, Cuiabá, Novorizontino, and Guarani, until he arrived at Mirassol in 2023.

It was at Mirassol that he secured a starting position and stood out again, with three goals and three assists in 47 games, sparking interest from Sport, which signed him for one season. Little used in the Pernambuco team, he returned to the club in the interior of São Paulo in 2024. He finished that year as an undisputed starter and maintained the position in 2025. Now, he takes a new step in his career by joining São Paulo.

Lucas Ramon's Numbers

Lucas Ramon comes from a very positive season with Mirassol, which surprised everyone by securing a direct spot in the group stage of the Libertadores via the Brazilian Championship. In 2025, the right-back contributed with four goals and five assists in 44 games.

According to Sofascore data, the player also created 11 big chances and distributed 42 key passes, with a crossing accuracy rate of 28%.

Also according to the platform, the right-back had standout defensive numbers, with 65 interceptions, 157 clearances, and a total of 315 defensive actions, averaging 7.2 per game.

Competitors

Lucas Ramon arrives at São Paulo to strengthen coach Hernán Crespo's team but faces strong competition at right-back. At the start of the season, the Tricolor's starter has been Maik, a Cotia academy product who established himself professionally last year.

On the bench, Cédric Soares also appears as an option for the role. The club also had right-back Mailton in the squad, but he was loaned to Fortaleza until the end of the season.
