Santos FC handed a first-team debut to Robinho Jr, the 17-year-old son of former Brazil forward Robinho, in Wednesday night’s Brazilian Série A match against Flamengo at Vila Belmiro. Wearing the No. 7 shirt, the winger entered in the second half, becoming the latest graduate of the club’s famed academy to reach the professional ranks. Robinho Jr shared the pitch with 33-year-old Neymar, who returned to his boyhood side in January and is under contract until the end of 2025. The appearance offered a glimpse of a potential new attacking partnership for Santos, which has been battling in the lower half of the league table this season. The youngster’s debut came a day after the club circulated training-ground footage of Neymar executing a nutmeg on his 13-year-old son, Davi Lucca, a clip that underscored the veteran’s ongoing engagement with the squad while he works back to full fitness following a series of injuries.
