Club career

Born in Vila Velha, Espírito Santo, Pedro Rocha started his career in an Atlético Mineiro academy in his hometown, before attracting the interest of São Paulo. In 2008, aged 13, he joined the latter, but was released just months later.[1]

In 2011 Pedro Rocha joined Juventus-SP, after a partnership with Diadema.[2] With the club he made his senior debut on 20 March 2013, starting in a 3–2 Campeonato Paulista Série A2 away win against Santo André, and scoring a brace through two penalties.[3]

On 12 March 2014 Pedro Rocha moved to Grêmio on loan until the end of the year, being initially assigned to the under-20s.[4] On 7 January 2015 he was bought outright,[5] and was subsequently promoted to the main squad by manager Luiz Felipe Scolari.

Pedro Rocha made his Série A debut on 16 May 2015, starting in a 0–2 away loss against Coritiba.[6] He scored his first goal in the category on 27 June, netting the first in a 2–1 win at Avaí; it was also the fastest of the tournament, with only 37 seconds.[7]
