This was the young man's first goal in Santos' first team. In total, he has 26 official games with the black and white team's shirt and an assist recorded in the 1-0 victory over Palmeiras, in the 13th round of last year's Brasileirão. Also in 2025, Juninho had provided an assist against Desportiva Ferroviária, in a friendly match that ended 3-1 for the São Paulo team.
