MADRID, 1 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Brazilian defender Lucas Beraldo, 20, became a new Paris Saint-Germain player this Monday, with a contract until 2028 and from Sao Paulo.
“Paris Saint-Germain is pleased to welcome Lucas Beraldo to the club. The 20-year-old Brazilian defender, who will wear the number 35, has signed a five-year contract,” reads the French team's official statement.
After representing Sao Paulo-based teams Uniao Barbarense and XV de Piracicaba, Beraldo joined Sao Paulo FC in 2020 and quickly established himself as a key player for the club's Under 17 team. At 18 years old he made his first international appearance with the Brazil Under-20 team.
Beraldo became a key player in the Brazilian league, making 52 appearances and one goal in Serie A at just 20 years old. In September 2023, he also won the first trophy of his career: Sao Paulo's first Copa do Brasil, beating Flamengo in the final.
“I am very happy to join a club as ambitious as Paris Saint-Germain. This is an important step in my career and one that will help me move forward. I can't wait to meet my new teammates and take my first steps with this shirt,” Beraldo announced on the PSG website.
