📖My Story
✨ From childhood in Brazil to international football

The passion for football started early, in the small town of Fortuna, in the state of Maranhão in Brazil. From a young age, Pedrinho showed he had a dream: to become a professional footballer. Raised on the streets of his city, he not only dribbled past friends but also the difficulties he encountered along his path. His career began at Escolinha Aprovação, under the guidance of professor Mariano, who saw a spark of talent in the boy and encouraged him to refine his skills.
With a heart full of determination and discipline, Pedrinho didn't let challenges discourage him. Every training session was an opportunity to learn and grow. Local competitions became his stage, where he shone as a rising star, earning the respect and admiration of fans and teammates. His dedication soon caught the attention of more important clubs, opening doors he had never imagined.

The search for new experiences took Pedrinho to Europe, where he had the opportunity to play for different clubs in Italy and Croatia. Each new league was a new learning experience; every opponent, a lesson in adaptation and overcoming. At Acri Academy and U.S.D. Scalea 1912, he proved that his passion for football was stronger than any cultural or technical barrier.
Defending the colors of NK Jadran Gunja and NK Kutjevo in the Croatian Third Division, Pedrinho stood out not only for his technical ability but also for the wisdom acquired over the years. He knew that every match was a chance to prove his worth and inspire other young athletes to never give up on their dreams.
"Football has taught me that with discipline, hard work and passion, we can overcome any obstacle. My journey is proof that dreams can come true."
— Pedrinho Martins
