Flamengo honored striker Pedro this Tuesday for becoming the player with the most goals scored for the club in the 21st century, with 163 goals. The number 9 received a symbolic plaque from the club as a gift in appreciation.

“It’s a very significant milestone, and I’m very grateful to be recognized and to have scored so many goals wearing the Flamengo shirt,” Pedro told the club’s official channel.

“It doesn’t stop here, I hope we can achieve even more, but without a doubt it brings back so many memories. I arrived at Gávea when I was eight, playing futsal, then moved to the field, and now having this mark here at Flamengo is undoubtedly something emotional, and my family is definitely very happy about it too,” he added.
