Lohan dos Santos Freire (born 20 September 1995), simply known as Lohan, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Portuguesa-RJ.

Career

Lohan was born in Carmo, Rio de Janeiro, and joined Friburguense's youth sides in 2012 after a trial period.[1] After making his first team debut in the 2013 Campeonato Carioca, he was loaned to Cruzeiro in May of that year and returned to the under-20 squad.[2]

Back to Frizão for the 2014 season, Lohan failed to establish himself as a starter,[3] and was loaned to Macaé in April 2016.[4] Back to Friburguense for the 2016 Copa Rio, he scored 11 goals during the competition, including a hat-trick in a 5–0 away win over Rio São Paulo.[5]

On 31 October 2016, Lohan moved to Resende on loan.[6] After featuring rarely, he returned to Friburguense, where he scored 13 goals in 19 matches before returning to Resende again on loan on 24 October 2017.[7]

Lohan was again the top scorer of Friburguense in the 2018 season, and initially agreed to join Portuguesa-RJ in October of that year.[8] On 4 December, however, he moved to Série A side CSA.[9]

After being rarely used, Lohan moved to ABC on 24 June 2019, still owned by Friburguense.[10] On 18 September, he moved to Botafogo-PB also on loan,[11] and scored ten goals in all competitions for the side before leaving for América Mineiro on 5 October 2020.[12]

On 8 September 2021, after only one appearance for América during the entire year, Lohan was announced on loan at Confiança.[13] The following 10 January, he moved to Criciúma,[14] and agreed to a contract extension on 7 November 2022.[15]

Lohan playing for Santo André in 2024

On 8 January 2024, Lohan rescinded his contract with Criciúma,[16] and joined Santo André seven days later.[17] He moved to Floresta on 12 April,[18] but agreed to a deal with Guarani on 24 August.[19]

Lohan began the 2025 campaign at Portuguesa-RJ, before moving to homonymous Portuguesa on 31 March of that year.[20] On 10 February 2026, he left Lusa to return to his previous club.[21]
