Early career

[edit]

Bremer joined Desportivo Brasil in 2014, aged 17. In 2016 he was loaned to São Paulo for one year, and was initially assigned to the under-20 squad. He made his professional debut with the reserves on 12 October of that year, coming on as a late substitute in a 3–0 home loss against Rio Claro, for the year's Copa Paulista.[5]

Atlético Mineiro

[edit]

In March 2017, Bremer moved to Atlético Mineiro for a fee of R$ 380,000.[6] Promoted to the main squad in June, he made his first team – and Série A – debut on 25 June, replacing injured Rodrigão in a 1–0 away win against Chapecoense.[7] On 11 July 2017, Bremer renewed his contract until the end of 2021.[8]

His first senior professional goal and only goal for Atlético came in a 2–1 win over Athletico Paranaense on 13 May 2018.[9]

Torino

[edit]

On 10 July 2018, Bremer joined Italian club Torino on a five-year deal.[10] He made his debut with the Granata on 12 August in the Coppa Italia against Cosenza (4–0), entering in the 23rd minutes of the second half in place of Armando Izzo.[citation needed] On 19 August he made his debut in Serie A, once again as a substitute for Izzo, in a game lost 1–0 against Roma.[citation needed] Bremer made his first appearance as a starter on 3 May 2019 in the Turin deby, a 1–1 draw against Juventus.[citation needed] In his first season with Torino he made a total of seven appearances between Serie A and the Coppa Italia, mainly as a reserve to Emiliano Moretti and Koffi Djidji.[citation needed]

After Moretti's retirement at the end of the season, Walter Mazzarri began using Bremer as a starter at the beginning of the 2019–20 season.[citation needed] On 25 July 2019, he made his debut in UEFA competitions, in the first qualifying round of the Europa League against Debrecen.[citation needed] In the second qualifying round, he scored an own goal in a 3–2 home loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers.[citation needed]

In the 2020–21 season, Bremer began to play as a starter for Torino with more continuity, and on 30 November 2020 scored the match-winning goal in an away win against Genoa (1–0).[citation needed] On 28 January 2020, he scored a brace in the Coppa Italia, which ended in a 4–2 defeat against AC Milan.[citation needed] Following the resumption of the season, he played all games as a starter for Torino and contributed a further two goals.[citation needed] He ended the season with a total of 35 appearances and five goals in all competitions.[citation needed]

On 2 February 2022, Bremer extended his contract with the club until 2024.[11] His performances offered throughout the 2021–22 season earned him the award as the best defender of the Serie A season.[12]

Juventus

On 20 July 2022, Bremer joined rival club Juventus on a five-year deal.[13] He made his competitive debut on 15 August, in a Serie A 3–0 win over Sassuolo.[14] On 11 September, he scored his first goal for the Bianconeri, in a 2–2 draw to Salernitana in the league.[15] On 28 February 2023, Bremer scored for Juventus against his former club Torino in a 4–2 Derby della Mole win.[16]

On 27 December 2023, after establishing himself in Juventus' defence during the first half of the season, Bremer extended his contract with The Old Lady until 2028.[17]

On 16 May 2024, he played the full match in the 2024 Coppa Italia final which Juventus won 1–0 against Atalanta.[18] On 2 October 2024, Bremer sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury in the sixth minute of a UEFA Champions League match against RB Leipzig, ending his 2024–25 season.[19][20]

Bremer returned from injury on the opening day of the 2025–26 Serie A season, helping Juve to a clean sheet in the 2–0 win over Parma.[21] A meniscus injury sustained in October 2025 saw him miss fifteen matches, with the defender making his return after a 78-day absence in a 1–0 win at Bologna on 14 December.[22] He scored his first goal since May 2024 in a 5–0 win over Cremonese on 12 January 2026.[23]

On 9 September 2022, Bremer received his first call up to the Brazil national team, for friendlies against Ghana and Tunisia.[24] He made his debut against Ghana on 23 September, in a 3–0 win.[25]

On 7 November, Bremer was named in the squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.[26] He played the full match in a 1–0 loss to Cameroon in Group G,[27] as well as 18 minutes as a substitute in the 4–1 round of 16 defeat of South Korea.[28][29] Bremer was included in Brazil's squad for the 2024 Copa América[30] but did not make an appearance at the tournament.[31] On 26 March 2026, Bremer scored his first goal for Brazil against France in a 2-1 loss for them in a friendly.
