Club career
Athletico Paranaense
Born in Serrana, São Paulo, Lodi joined Athletico Paranaense's youth setup in 2012. He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 14 October 2016, starting in a 1–0 away loss against Grêmio.[3]
Lodi subsequently represented the under-23 in the Campeonato Paranaense, and scored his first senior goal on 25 March 2018, netting the opener in a 5–0 home routing of Maringá.[4] Three days later, he extended his contract until March 2021.[5]
Lodi became a regular starter under new manager Tiago Nunes, and renewed his contract until 2022 on 10 August 2018.[6]
Atlético Madrid
On 28 June 2019, La Liga side Atlético Madrid reached an agreement in principle with Athletico Paranaense for the transfer of Lodi.[7] The deal was completed on 7 July 2019 and Lodi signed a six-year contract with the club.[8] On 24 November 2019, Lodi scored his first goal for Atlético in a 1–1 draw with Granada.[9] On 16 May 2021, Lodi came on as a substitute and scored a late equalizing goal in the eventual 2–1 home win over Osasuna that would keep the club in the title race against Real Madrid.[10] The following week, as Atlético won the last game in the competition, Lodi became a 2020–21 La Liga champion as part of the team.[11]
On 15 March 2022, Lodi scored his first Champions League goal to help Atlético Madrid beat Manchester United 1–0 at Old Trafford and qualify for the quarter-finals, securing a 2–1 aggregate win.[12]
Nottingham Forest (loan)
On 29 August 2022, Lodi signed for Premier League club Nottingham Forest on a season-long loan deal.[13] He scored his first goal for Nottingham Forest on 9 November 2022 against Tottenham Hotspur in the EFL Cup.[14]
Marseille
On 14 July 2023, Olympique de Marseille confirmed that they had reached an agreement to acquire Renan Lodi from Atlético Madrid, having already agreed personal terms with him,[15] for a transfer fee of €13 million with a 20% sell-on clause.[16]
Al-Hilal
On 17 January 2024, Lodi signed a three-and-a-half-year contract with Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal for a reported fee of €23 million.[17][18] In September 2025, he unilaterally ended his contract with the club upon his return to his homeland.[19] The decision came after being left out of the 2025–26 Saudi Pro League squad due to the foreign player limit.[20]
Atlético Mineiro
On 24 December 2025, Campeonato Brasileiro Série A club Atlético Mineiro announced an agreement in principle to sign Lodi on a free transfer and a five-year contract.[21] On 27 December, the deal was made official.[22]
International career
Lodi made his debut for the Brazil national team on 10 October 2019, replacing Alex Sandro in a 1–1 draw with Senegal.[23]
