Raykkonen Pereira Soares (born 13 July 2008), simply known as Raykkonen, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Internacional.

Early life

Named after Formula One racing driver Kimi Räikkönen, Raykkonen was born in Mãe do Rio, Pará.[2]

Career

Having joined the youth sides of Goiás at the age of 13, Raykkonen signed his first professional contract with the club on 15 September 2024, agreeing to a three-year deal.[3] On 7 February 2025 he was loaned to Internacional until January 2026, being initially assigned to the under-17 team.[4]

Raykkonen made his first team debut on 29 April 2025; after coming on as a second-half substitute for Enner Valencia in a Copa do Brasil match against Maracanã, he scored a goal after 15 minutes on the field, but it was ultimately annulled by the VAR, and the match would later finish 1–0.[5][6] On 5 February 2026, Inter announced they activated Raykkonen's R$ 2 million release clause, and he signed a permanent contract until February 2029.[7]
