Racing Santander have officially completed the signing of Pedro Felipe from Juventus, with the transfer fee undisclosed. The Brazilian defender joins the Cantabrian side during pre-season, aiming to bolster a backline that helped the team finish the 2025 season as Segunda División champions with 82 points (25 wins, 7 draws, and 10 losses in 42 games), scoring 90 goals and conceding just 61 (+29 goal difference).
What does Pedro Felipe bring to the team?
Pedro Felipe arrives with experience in Italian football and a solid track record as a centre-back. His addition strengthens a defensive line that already proved its resilience last season, conceding only 61 goals-the second-best record in the division. The club, which finished 5 points clear of Deportivo La Coruña, aims to maintain its consistency in the new campaign.
How does the team approach this signing?
Racing Santander enter the transfer window with ambition after a historic season. With a last result of 4-1 against Cádiz (31 May 2026) and a recent run of 3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5 matches (WWDDW), the squad is in high spirits. The team, on a 2-game winning streak, sees Pedro Felipe as a key reinforcement to sustain their performance.
What’s next for Racing Santander?
The club continues to work in the transfer market, though no further official moves have been confirmed yet. With the 2026-27 season approaching, the goal is to replicate the success of last term, where the team showed consistency both at home and away.
