The 2025 edition of the Brazilian Championship is COMING!
And OneFootball highlights some athletes up to 20 years old who deserve special attention.
Some already have some experience in their teams. Others are still seeking more space after standing out in the youth teams.
Check it out below:

He was one of the great highlights of the Tricolor in winning the São Paulo Cup this year.
He has already had chances in the main team but was not called upon by Zubeldía afterward.
The expectation is for new opportunities when SPFC competes in the BR, Copa do Brasil, and Libertadores simultaneously.

The latest great revelation from Palmeiras is already a reality - and a player for the Brazilian National Team. But he stands out here for having an "expiration date."
Estêvão is heading to Chelsea after the Super Club World Cup.
Verdão relies on the winger's talent to start the competition well.

One of the great highlights of the victorious "generation 07" tricolor, the midfielder caught the attention of Fluminense fans in the opportunities he had this season.
But he will only return to play in three months after suffering a grade 2 sprain in the medial collateral ligament of his left knee.
His return is eagerly awaited by the tricolors.

The 18-year-old forward stood out intensely for Palmeiras' under-20 team last year. And debuted in the main team in July of the same year.
He was important in this year's under-20 Libertadores. And has played eight games under Abel's command in the current season, with one goal scored.

Corinthians is betting heavily on a good deal involving the 20-year-old midfielder.
He was a starter last season and is seeking his space in a more consolidated sector after standing out in the under-20 South American Championship.

After much effort, Botafogo secured the arrival of the defender raised at Santos for around R$ 89 million.
At 19 years old and with the potential to be negotiated soon, he presented himself after winning the under-20 South American Championship with the Brazilian National Team.
He has the mission of being a valuable option for a sector with more experienced starters.

He took advantage of his chances and was a starter in eight of the 11 games played with Santos in the Paulistão.
The competition will grow, but the tendency is that he will continue to be used by Caixinha.

The Cria da Colina played six games with the main team at the beginning of this season.
The competition for the wings has increased with the latest signings.
But Vasco will need to use its squad well when playing on three fronts.
