Pedro Veronez Vilhena (born 18 February 2002), sometimes known as Pedrinho, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Operário Ferroviário.
Born in São Paulo, Vilhena joined São Paulo FC's youth setup at the age of nine.[1] On 12 August 2021, he renewed his contract with the club until 2024,[2] and finished the year impressing with the under-20s.
Vilhena started the 2022 season with the expectation to break into the first team, but spent the majority of the year nursing a knee injury. Back to action in September, he returned to the under-20 squad.[3]
Vilhena made his professional – and Série A – debut with Tricolor on 20 September 2023, coming on as a second-half substitute for Michel Araújo in a 2–1 home loss to Fortaleza.[4] On 2 January of the following year, he was loaned to Série B side Sport Recife.[5] On 17 December 2024 Vilhena was loaned again, this time to AA Ponte Preta.[6]
On 1 September 2025, Vilhena, who had not been used, consensually terminated his contract with São Paulo and signed a contract until the end of 2026 with Operário Ferroviário EC from Ponta Grossa, after being recommended by his coach at São Paulo's under-20 time, Alex.[7][8]
