Brazil defender Jair Cunha joined the Reds in July 2025 from Série A side, Botafogo.
Jair started his career at Brazilian side Santos from the age of 10 working his way up through their youth ranks before finally breaking into the first team at 18 years old in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. He went on to make 24 senior appearances with Santos before moving to Fogo in February 2025.
The central defender who is known for his height standing at 6ft 6 also has experience with Brazil’s youth setup with eight appearances for his country at Under-20 level, helping Canarinha to the U20 South America Championship crown earlier this year.
Jair missed just one game at the tournament, completing the full 90 minutes in each of his eight matches helping his nation keep three clean sheets along the way to the title.
