Left-back Renan Lodi has officially taken ownership of Galo’s iconic No. 6 jersey. The player originally wore No. 16 upon his arrival at the club, as his preferred number was occupied by center-back Júnior Alonso.

Following the Paraguayan defender’s transfer to Atlanta United in the United States, Lodi secured the number he has worn since the beginning of his professional career at Athletico-PR.

The full-back currently holds a significant position within the squad:

Key role: Lodi has established himself as a leader and an undisputed starter under coach Domínguez.

Season stats: He has recorded 31 appearances so far, contributing 4 goals and 2 assists.

Contract: The player joined on a free transfer after terminating his deal with Al-Hilal and remains under contract with Atlético-MG until the end of 2030.

Next match: Galo returns to action on July 21 at 7:30 p.m. to face Bahia at Arena MRV in the Brasileirão.
