Brazilian Teenager Robinho Jr Set to Join Genoa in Serie A

Genoa has reached a verbal agreement with Santos for 18-year-old Brazilian attacker Robinho Jr, marking a significant step in his young career. The deal is structured as a loan with an option to buy, and the player is already in Italy.

Robinho Jr is the son of former Brazil international Robinho, who had a successful European career with Real Madrid, Manchester City, and AC Milan. The teenager rose through the Santos academy and made his first-team debut in 2025.

A New Chapter for Robinho Jr

This breakthrough comes after Santos rejected Genoa’s previous proposal due to concerns over the financial structure. However, the parties have now reached a verbal agreement, paving the way for Robinho Jr’s move to Serie A.
