Career

edit

Born in Guaraqueçaba, Paraná, Felipe Teresa had a number of failed trials at several clubs before joining the under-15 side of Independente de Limeira.[2] After being the club's top scorer in the category's Campeonato Paulista, he spent a period training at Azuriz before joining Flamengo's youth sides in 2022.[3] Initially on loan, he subsequently signed a permanent deal with the club, and helped the under-20 side to win the 2024 U-20 Copa Libertadores and the 2024 Under-20 Intercontinental Cup, scoring the winning goal in the latter.

Felipe Teresa made his first team – and Série A – debut on 22 September 2024; after coming on as a late substitute for Carlos Alcaraz, he scored Fla's second goal in a 3–2 away loss to Grêmio, as head coach Tite opted to line up several reserve players.[4][5]
