Persija Strengthens Squad with Brazilian Midfielder Fabio Calonego Ahead of Super League 2025-26
Persija Jakarta has officially signed Brazilian midfielder Fabio Calonego as part of their preparations for the upcoming Super League 2025-26 season. Fabio becomes the fourth new signing for the team, further boosting the club’s strong Brazilian influence. With the addition of Fabio, Persija now boasts four Brazilian players, complementing the leadership of Mauricio Souza and the retained talents of Carlos Eduardo and Gustavo Almeida.
This Brazilian presence has become a defining feature of Persija’s squad, creating a distinctive “Samba” flavor that fans have grown excited about. Alongside these Brazilians, the team also has one foreign player from Japan, Ryo Matsumura. The league’s new rules allow clubs to register up to 11 foreign players, although only eight can be fielded during matches, offering Persija flexibility in squad selection.
Fabio expressed enthusiasm and confidence about joining Persija, eager to contribute his best on the field. His excitement to wear the Persija jersey and engage with supporters highlights his motivation to make an immediate impact. This positive attitude reflects the club’s ambitions to compete strongly in the domestic league with their reinforced lineup.
Throughout his career, Fabio has played for several clubs in Brazil’s Serie B and Serie C. He started his professional journey in 2019 with Ypiranga and later represented Operário-PR, Azuriz, Aimoré, and most recently Confiança, where he appeared in 62 matches over three seasons. His consistent performances and experience bring valuable depth to Persija’s midfield as they aim for success in the new season.
