FK Pohronie

Britto signed with Fortuna Liga club FK Pohronie on a half-year loan.[5] Britto made his Fortuna Liga debut for Pohronie on 6 February 2021, in a fixture played at neutral ground at Štadión pod Dubňom, against Nitra. He was featured in the starting line-up but was taken off the pitch and replaced by Alieu Fadera, with the score at 1:1, due to an injury. Pohronie won the fixture 3:1, following two strikes by Adler Da Silva and one by Andrej Štrba. Nitra connected by Kilian Pagliuca. This constituted Pohronie's mere second victory in the season.[6] Due to the injury, Britto did not appear in any further matches for Pohronie.
