Chengdu's Forward Anchor Secured! Club Officially Confirms Renewal of 34-Year-Old Felipe, All-Time Top Scorer Stays for Title Chase

On August 7, Beijing time, Chengdu Rongcheng Football Club, currently leading the Chinese Super League standings, officially announced that it has renewed the contract with 34-year-old Brazilian center forward Felipe. The club's all-time top scorer will continue to wear the Rongcheng jersey, ensuring the team's title defense and AFC Champions League campaign.

1. The Absolute Value of the Club's First Legend

Since joining in 2021, Felipe has accompanied Chengdu Rongcheng from a China League One newcomer to a CSL powerhouse. To date, he has played 160 matches for the club, scoring 84 goals, firmly holding the top spot in both appearances and goals in the club's history.

In the 2026 season, the 34-year-old Felipe still maintains a very high competitive level. This season, he has contributed a total of 14 goals and 3 assists in the league and FA Cup, making him the absolute core of the team that currently sits atop the standings. Whether as a pivot in the box or a clutch finisher at critical moments, he is an irreplaceable tactical cog in Rongcheng's attacking system.

2. Stabilizing the Forward Line, Advancing on Both CSL and AFC Fronts

Felipe's stay has given Chengdu Rongcheng a great reassurance for multi-front campaigns. This season, Rongcheng has not only performed strongly in the CSL but also leads the standings by a huge margin of 14 points.

Having a pillar like Felipe in the forward line means that the team still has the most reliable offensive guarantee when facing a dense schedule. His experience and finishing ability will be the most trusted weapons for Chengdu Rongcheng during the crucial title race and in the AFC Champions League.

3. Rooted in the Land of Abundance, Continuing the Green Field Legend

Off the pitch, Felipe has long regarded Chengdu as his second hometown. Not only has he settled here with his family, but he has also deeply integrated into the local daily life, earning the love of Chengdu fans.

This contract renewal is not only the club's recognition of the veteran's competitive form but also a two-way commitment of emotion and trust. Looking ahead, we look forward to this "Rongcheng Legend" continuing to write his football story with Chengdu through goals.
