Player to watch – Yuri Alberto

Yuri Alberto has been on fire for Corinthians this season, finding the back of the net five times in just 10 Serie A matches. His relentless performances have been the heartbeat of the team's drive toward a top-four finish.

Alberto a key cog in the Corinthians machine

With a keen eye for goal and a knack for manufacturing chances, Alberto has cemented himself as a linchpin in the Corinthians attack. If his current form can be maintained, Alberto should remain an indispensable asset for the squad as the season progresses.
