Jonathan Luiz Moreira Rosa Júnior (born 28 April 1999), simply known as Jonathan, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Polish club Kotwica Kołobrzeg.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Born in Capão da Canoa, Rio Grande do Sul, Jonathan joined Internacional's youth setup in 2009, aged ten, after two years at Juventude.[2] In September 2018, he moved to Avaí and was assigned to their under-20 squad.[3] After being the latter club's top goalscorer in the 2019 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior and the 2019 Campeonato Brasileiro de Aspirantes, he was promoted to the main squad by manager Alberto Valentim.

Jonathan made his first team – and Série A – debut on 2 September 2019, coming on as a second-half substitute for Brenner in a 1–0 away win against Fluminense.[4] He scored his first goal thirteen days later, netting the game's only in an away defeat of Athletico Paranaense.[5]

On 9 August 2023, Jonathan made his first career move abroad to join Polish third tier club Kotwica Kołobrzeg on a two-year deal.[6] During the 2023–24 season, he scored 23 goals in 30 II liga appearances, including two hat-tricks. He was the league's best goalscorer across the regular season,[7] as Kotwica finished 2nd in the standings and were promoted to the I liga for the first time in the club's history.[8]
