Giovane is injured and could miss the rest of the season at Corinthians

The Young striker may no longer defend Corinthians this season. The player tore an anterior tendon in his left thigh during training and will be sidelined for two months. The trend is that he will only be available again in November, in the final round of the Brazilian championship.

The player is the Timão youth athlete least used by Vanderlei Luxemburgo in 2023. The coach has tried to make a sort of reformulation of the squad, focusing a lot on the young Corinthians. Young, however, he failed to distinguish himself in the eyes of the coach.




Giovane therefore entered in just five games on the year, for a total of 154 minutes played. He is behind names like Wesley (19 games), Biro (15), Felipe Augusto (12) and Pedro (12), for example. In the last window, the player has received some polls from European clubs, but the injury removes any chance of the athlete leaving at the moment.

Corinthians is betting a lot on the striker’s football. Signed from Alvinegro in July 2022 after a loan spell, the Giovane cost Timão around R$3 million. The club retained 65% of the economic rights and signed a contract until July 31, 2025. At the beginning of the year, he won the Under-20 South American championship with the Brazilian national team and played in the World Cup in his category.
