Striker Pedro’s Lack of Playtime in Corinthians Raises Questions

Sold by Corinthians to Zenit on June 29, striker Pedro has not yet left for Russia. But in practice, it’s like he’s already gone.

Of the 18 games that Timão played in the last two months, he played in just three.

At the age of 17, the boy entered the second half of the 1-0 defeat against Athletico, in Curitiba, on June 24, and played for 18 minutes.

Five days later, on the night of the announcement of the sale, he played the final 37 minutes in the 3-0 victory against Liverpool-URU, in the Libertadores farewell. And, on July 11, he started in the 1-0 against Universitario, at the Arena, but was injured after 40 minutes.

There are, therefore, 44 days without acting, including the days when he was treating pain caused by a blow to the hip. Back on the lists a month ago, he was a bench option for Vanderlei Luxemburgo in several games, was cut from others and has not even been considered to enter the final minutes.

In all, in 2023, Pedro has a total of 425 minutes, divided into 12 matches played by the club.

Currently, he was left behind in the line of players who play on the sides of the field, losing a spot to Matías Rojas, Wesley, Guilherme Biro, Ángel Romero and the now recovered Guilherme Mosquito.

Officially, the club says that Pedro has not acted just because of Luxa’s technical option. The player, who turns 18 in February 2024, will head to Russia at the start of next season.
