Club career

Palmeiras

[edit | edit source]

Born in Santana, São José dos Campos, in the Brazilian state of São Paulo, Reis began his career at the R10 Academy in São José dos Campos – an academy run by Robinho – before joining the academy of professional side Palmeiras in 2016 at the age of ten.[2]

Reis established himself as a key player for Palmeiras' youth teams, often captaining the sides he played in, and played in the final of the 2022 edition of the Copa do Brasil Sub-17. However, during the game he collided with a Vasco da Gama player and suffered a concussion as a result, needing to be taken to hospital after regaining consciousness on the pitch.[3] Following the game, Reis thanked fans on social media, stating that he was fine after the incident.[4] He signed his first professional contract with Palmeiras towards the end of the 2022 season, penning a deal through 2025.[2][5]

On 11 October 2023, Reis was named by English newspaper The Guardian as one of the best players born in 2006 worldwide, alongside former Palmeiras teammates Endrick and Luis Guilherme.[6][7] He played for the under-20 squad in the 2024 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior before starting to train with the first team in May of that year.[8]

Reis made his first team – and Série A – debut on 26 June 2024, coming on as a second-half substitute for Murilo in a 3–0 away loss to Fortaleza.[9] He scored his first senior goal on 1 July, netting his side's second in a 2–0 home win over rivals Corinthians; it was also the first start of his senior career.[10] He subsequently established himself as a starter, contributing with a further goal in 22 appearances during the year.[11]

Manchester City

[edit | edit source]

On 21 January 2025, Reis joined Premier League club Manchester City on a four-and-a-half-year deal for a fee worth £29.6 million.[12][13] On 8 February, Reis made his debut for the club in a 2–1 FA Cup fourth round away win over EFL League One side Leyton Orient. He was substituted off for fellow January signing Abdukodir Khusanov at half-time.[14] On 2 April, Reis made his league debut for City in a 2–0 home victory against Leicester City, coming on as a substitute for Joško Gvardiol in the 92nd minute.[15]

Loan to Girona

[edit | edit source]

On 8 August 2025, Reis joined La Liga club Girona on a season-long loan deal.[16][17]

International career

[edit | edit source]

Reis has represented Brazil at under-16 level, featuring at the 2022 Montaigu Tournament.[18] He was called up to the under-17 squad in October 2022 for friendlies against Chile and Paraguay the following month.[19]
