Leandro, a former representative of Brazil's age group and with a physique of 1m76 and 75kg, began his professional career in 2014 at SC Internacionau in Brazil.
Leandro first entered the K-League after playing in Portugal, Georgia, Israel and Moldova before joining from Seoul E-Land in 2020. Seizing a left wing forward position at E-Land, he emerged as the ace in the team, scoring 13 points and 12 assists in 61 games in two seasons.
Based on his performance, he moved to Daejeon Hana in 2022, leading Daejeon to promotion to K League 1 with nine points and five assists in 35 games. After being promoted, he remained in Daejeon and scored four points and nine assists in 39 games in two seasons, proving his value in K League 1, but he left a regret by terminating his contract with Daejeon due to an injury in the summer of 2024.
After returning to Brazil, he devoted himself to rehabilitation and raised his body to normal conditions, and received a lot of love calls from a number of K-League clubs this winter. Leandro chose Jeonnam, which showed the most active movement among them. Leandro, who joined South Jeolla Province, came to face Valdivia in the same team after about 10 years with him in Brazil as a child.
Jeonnam, which formed the Brazilian Triangle by recruiting 'Ace'Valdivia who renewed his contract last season and 'Monster Striker'Honan'Crack'Leandro, will start winter training after calling up the team on January 2 to promote to the K League 1.
