O Fluminense agreed to renew the contract of striker João Neto until December 2025. The 19-year-old striker signed his new contract with Tricolor at CT Carlos Castilho. The old contract ended in mid-2024.
João Neto is part of the so-called “Dream Generation” of Xerém, Brazilian under-17 champion and vice-president of the Copa do Brasil under-17 in 2021. Currently, the center forward is the holder of the Under-20 team of Tricolor.
João Neto has recently gone through a complicated period. The 19-year-old striker suffered a broken left ankle, required surgery and was sidelined for a long time, but has now returned to the under-20 team.
