Early life

Queiroz was born in 2003 in São Paulo, Brazil. In 2007, her family moved to Weston, Florida and settled until 2014 until they moved to Madrid, Spain. [3] [4] [5] She was part of the Atlético Madrid academy until 2017. [6]

Club career

Queiroz played in the youth teams of Atlético Madrid. She started her senior career in 2018 at Primera División club Madrid CFF. [7] On 9 December 2018, she made her professional debut as a 15-year-old in a 0–7 defeat against Barcelona. [8] Queiroz played 14 matches and scored one goal with Madrid until February 2020.

On 17 July 2020, Barcelona announced the signing of Queiroz for an undisclosed fee on a three-year deal. [9] [10] On 12 August 2021, Levante signed Gio on a one–year loan deal until the end of the 2021–22 season. [11] [12] She made her official debut for Levante in qualification for the 2021–22 UEFA Women's Champions League, entering the match against Celtic as a substitute. [13] She scored her first goals for the club in the final of qualifying Round 1 against Rosenborg. She entered the match as a substitute and scored twice in extra time, including the match-winning goal that helped Levante advance to Round 2 of qualifying. [14]

In 2022, Queiroz won the Samba Gold Feminino 2021 after defeating 29 opponents. The medal honors the best Brazilian player working abroad and was given to the women's category for the first time. [15]

In September 2022, Queiroz was sold to Arsenal for around €40,000, with the club immediately sending her on loan to Everton for the season; [16] amid injuries at Arsenal, however, was recalled the following January. [17] They had intended to send her on another loan for the 2023–24 season, but failed to come to an agreement before the season, also meaning they were unable to register her at the club. [18] She was then loaned back to her first senior club, Madrid CFF, in January 2024. [19]

Spain

In August 2019, Queiroz was called to represent the Spain U17 national team in a friendly tournament held in Sweden in September of the same year. [25] There, she played against the United States, whom she had played for months earlier, scoring a hat-trick and leading Spain to a 4–3 win. [26]

In February 2020, Queiroz was named to Brazil's under-17 squad. [27] She played against Austria and Portugal, scoring a goal in a 2–0 win against the former. [28]

On 8 October 2020, Queiroz was called by Brazil women's national football team's coach Pia Sundhage to a training camp in Portimão, Portugal on 18–28 October 2020. [29] On 9 November, Queiroz was called to represent Brazil in two friendly matches against Argentina. [30] Later, Argentina quit the matches with Ecuador taking its place. [31] On 1 December, she debuted for Brazil coming in the half time of the 8–0 win over Ecuador. [32] [33] In June 2021, Queiroz was named to Brazil's squad for the 2020 Summer Olympics. [34] She played against Zambia in the group stage match, coming up as substitute. [35] Brazil ended up being eliminated at the penalties by Canada at the quarter-finals. [36]

In June 2022, Queiroz was named to Brazil's squad for the 2022 Copa América Femenina. [37] Brazil ended up winning the tournament for the 8th time, with Queiroz starting the initial match against Argentina [38] and coming up as a substitute against Uruguay [39] at the group stage. In July 2022, Queiroz was named to Brazil's squad for the 2022 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup at Costa Rica, but she withdrew from the tournament.

Since their first game in 1914, the Brazil national football team have played numerous matches against opposition whose identity did not fall within that of the standard FIFA international team. As Brazil are one of the most high-profile teams in the world, with a long-held reputation of skilled players and exciting matches, they are often sought to play in exhibition matches for commercial reasons, by clubs/regional federations celebrating anniversaries or by special select teams such as the World XI. Additionally, Brazil's many participations in official tournaments, primarily the FIFA World Cup, have occasionally involved warm-up matches against local non-international opponents.
