Scorer of a beautiful goal in Atlético’s 5-0 defeat of Timon, from Maranhão, in the debut of the Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior, young Yan, aged 19, has already played for Alvinegro’s main team.
Yan scored the fourth goal in Galinho’s rout. He received the ball outside the area, took the first touch and appeared in the area to receive it. Atlético’s number 10 dribbled past Timon’s goalkeeper and put the ball into the back of the net. See below.
Yan’s time as a professional was short-lived. He entered the field only once, in Galo’s 2-0 defeat to Botafogo, at Mineirão, in the 36th round of the 2022 Brazilian Championship. Coach Cuca was the black and white commander.
At the time, the attacking midfielder was still 18 years old. Yan was also mentioned in other matches of that Brasileirão, but was not involved. In 2023 he had no chance in the main team.
Atlético’s jewel, Yan renewed his contract with Atlético in 2022. The contract runs until December 2025. The fine for abroad is 50 million euros (around R$268 million).
