Renan Peixoto Nepomuceno (born 21 February 2000), known as Renan Peixoto or just Renan, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Portuguesa.

Career

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Renan played for the youth sides of Olaria before impressing for amateur side Cancela Preta in the 2017 Taça das Favelas [pt], a tournament between favelas in Brazil. This prompted to a move to São Caetano in 2018, and a loan to Corinthians followed, with the club purchasing 10% of his economic rights.[1]

On 28 February 2019, Renan moved to América Mineiro also on loan.[2] After only playing for the under-20s, he returned to Azulão, making his senior debut on 19 October of that year in a 2–0 Copa Paulista home loss to Mirassol.[3]

In 2021, after featuring rarely at São Caetano, Renan moved to Austria and joined SC Röthis [de] in the Eliteliga Vorarlberg. He scored 26 goals for the side (24 in the league), which led him to a move to 2. Liga side FC Dornbirn on 2 June 2022.[4][5]

On 6 January 2023, Renan was announced at K League 2 side Seoul E-Land.[6]

On 6 February 2024, Renan returned to Dornbirn.[7] On 18 July, after scoring twice in six appearances, he moved to fellow second division side Schwarz-Weiß Bregenz.[8]

On 7 January 2025, Renan returned to his home country after signing for Portuguesa, for a rumoured fee of R$ 2 million.[9]
