K League 1 club Incheon United has strengthened its flank attack by signing Leandro (31, Brazil), who has played in the K League.

Incheon announced on the 14th that it had signed the proven attacking resource Leandro, who has made 157 appearances and recorded 26 goals and 30 assists in his K League career, adding that he will wear jersey number 70.

Born in 1995, Leandro is a flank attacker capable of playing on both sides. He began his professional career at SC Internacional and gained experience in various overseas leagues including FC Arouca, GD Estoril Praia, Bela Nova FC, FC Dila Gori, Maccabi Netanya FC, and FC Sheriff Tiraspol.

He previously joined Seoul E-Land for the 2020 season to make his debut in K League professional football. He later played for Daejeon Hana Citizen, Jeonnam Dragons, and Seongnam FC. His career statistics in the K League include 39 appearances with 4 goals and 9 assists in K League 1, and 122 appearances with 22 goals and 21 assists in K League 2.

Incheon stated that Leandro's strengths lie in his fast speed and ability to break through on the flanks using individual skills. "He can shake up opposing defenses with sudden changes of direction and dribbling, and possesses the ability not only to finish plays himself but also to create scoring opportunities for teammates," the club explained.

The club added, "Since he can play on both flanks, his tactical versatility is high. Having played in the K League for a long time, he has a deep understanding of the domestic league and rich experience, so we expect him to adapt quickly to the team. With Leandro's arrival, we aim to expand our options for flank attacks and add speed and creativity to the attacking process."

With the signing of Leandro, Incheon now has additional foreign attacking resources alongside Mogoza, Jerson, and Ferrier, laying a foundation for a push toward the upper table in the second half of the season. Leandro has completed all entry procedures, including medical tests, and has joined the squad to participate in team training. He is expected to make his Incheon debut as early as this weekend's home match against Kim Cheon (SVP).
