Career

[edit]

Born in Parapuã, São Paulo,[1] Pedro Rocha began his career with Itapirense, before moving on loan to the youth sides of Ponte Preta in July 2018.[2]

On 16 January 2020, Pedro Rocha signed a permanent two-year contract with Ponte, being promoted to the first team.[3] In March, however, he was loaned to XV de Jaú, but only started to play for the club in September due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]

On 30 May 2021, Pedro Rocha moved to Inter de Limeira also in a temporary deal,[5] but featured in just one match. He was loaned to Athletic-MG for the 2022 Campeonato Mineiro on 9 December,[6] being a regular starter during the competition.

Pedro Rocha only returned to Ponte for the latter stages of the 2022 season, after a loan spell at Aymorés,[7] and made his first team debut on 4 November of that year, starting in a 1–0 Série B away win over Náutico.[8] He then became Caíque França's backup during the entire 2023 campaign.[9]

On 14 January 2024, after França's departure, Pedro Rocha signed a new one-year contract with the Macaca.[10] On 2 February, after starting the 2024 Campeonato Paulista as a first-choice, he further extended his link until 2026.[11]
