Gustavo Blanco Petersen Macedo, known simply as Gustavo Blanco (born 3 October 1994), is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Atlético Mineiro.

Career

Born in Salvador, Bahia, Blanco joined Esporte Clube Bahia aged 16 and was promoted to the senior team in early 2015. He made 13 appearances in the Série B during his first professional season.

On 23 December 2016, Blanco was loaned to América Mineiro on a season-long deal.[1] However, his performances in the 2017 Campeonato Mineiro campaign caught the eye of rivals Atlético Mineiro, who signed him on 3 July 2017 on a loan deal that included a buyout clause.[2] He spent his first season at Atlético as a substitute, totaling eight appearances in all competitions.

Blanco made his first team breakthrough at the start of the 2018 Série A season, drawing praise from fans and critics for his passing and defensive qualities, as well as for his high work rate on the pitch.[3][4] On 21 May 2018, Atlético acquired him permanently on a four-year deal.[5]
