Cauly was signed on loan from Bahia until the end of the season. He was officially presented as the new reinforcement for São Paulo last Wednesday. The player, who will wear the number 80 shirt, arrives to fill a role considered a gap in the squad: that of a creative midfielder.
The midfielder joins the São Paulo squad with confidence, precisely because he is “a midfielder the team doesn't have,” in the words of coach Hernán Crespo himself. The midfielder can bring more offensive characteristics to the São Paulo team and play to supply the forwards, like a number 10.
In the system used by Crespo's São Paulo, the new number 80 can form an attacking trio with Luciano, Lucas or Calleri, or a trio of midfielders, playing further forward, with Marcos Antônio and Danielzinho further back organizing the play.
