Career

Since joining São Paulo's youth academy in 2021, William Gomes was frequently called up for Brazil's youth teams, in the U15[1] and U17 categories.[2] Being part of a generation considered to have great talent,[3] he had a meteoric rise in the 2023 season, being quickly promoted to the professional squad by manager Dorival Júnior.[4]
