The Brazilian club "Sao Paulo" officially announced the signing of the 32-year-old midfielder Oscar, who at one time played for the London "Chelsea". The contract will enter into force on January 1, 2025 and will be valid for 2.5 years.
Oscar returned to Brazil as a free agent after an eight-year stay at the Chinese club Shanghai SIPG. The press service of "Sao Paulo" confirmed that this strategic reinforcement is aimed at strengthening the position of the club in the coming seasons.
The midfielder had a successful career in China. In the last season of the championship, "Shanghai SIPG" became the champion, and Oscar distinguished himself with 14 goals and 24 assists. Before that, he played for "Chelsea", where he gained popularity thanks to his technical skills, excellent field vision and performance.
Oscar's return to Brazil is a significant event for local football, as he once played for the national team, representing the country at the highest level. A move to Sao Paulo could be a new stage in his career and a boost for a team that has ambitions to fight for the championship.
