Jonathan Calleri São Paulo contract

Entities: São Paulo FC · Jonathan Calleri · Brazilian Serie A · Monterrey · Flamengo

Overview

In late July 2026, Argentine striker Jonathan Calleri ended a 12‑match goal drought for São Paulo FC with a header against Flamengo, marking his first goal since early April and bringing him close to a personal 100‑goal milestone for the club.

The following day, São Paulo and Calleri moved nearer to a new agreement. After lowering his salary demands, the forward agreed to a contract that would keep him at the Morumbi until December 2028, with an automatic extension clause to December 2029 if performance targets are met. The deal also includes settlement of outstanding image‑rights and prize‑money debts in installments. Despite interest and higher offers from clubs in the United States and Mexico, Calleri chose to remain, aiming to help São Paulo improve its league standing.
