O Marília confirmou na manhã desta quinta-feira a volta do volante Albert, 30 anos, para a Série A2 do Paulista de 2027. Ele já vestiu a camisa do MAC entre 2022 e 2023 e é o terceiro reforço anunciado oficialmente pelo clube.
Neste ano, Albert defendeu a Portuguesa-RJ, com sete jogos no Carioca, e o Pouso Alegre-MG, onde fez seis partidas e deu uma assistência na Série D.
No ano passado, ajudou a Inter de Limeira a subir para a Série C: 19 jogos, um gol e uma assistência. Também defendeu o Tombense no primeiro semestre, pelo Mineiro. Em 2024, jogou no Nova Iguaçu, vice-campeão carioca após perder a final para o Flamengo.
Pelo Marília, são 54 jogos, seis gols e uma assistência. Um dos momentos mais lembrados é a semifinal da Copa Paulista de 2022: ele fez os dois gols do 2 a 1 sobre a Portuguesa, no Bento de Abreu, e colocou o MAC na decisão.
Além dele, o clube manteve o meia João Lucas e contratou o atacante Erik Bessa, que estava no XV de Piracicaba. A pré-temporada sob Marcelo Marelli está marcada para começar em 16 de novembro.
