Before heading to Portugal, the goalkeeper renewed his contract with Palmeiras until 2030. Trained in the Verdão youth academy, he played 77 matches and won eight titles with the club, in addition to lifting the South American U-20 trophy with the Brazilian National Team.

Kaique is now in his second experience in Portuguese football, after playing for Farense in the 2024/2025 season. Now, he says he feels much more adapted to the European style of play.

My adaptation was much quicker here because I didn't have an injury at the start of the season, as I did last time. I ended up being out for three months. Besides that, I believe I have matured in every way, with an understanding of European football. I am much more prepared to help Nacional achieve the season's goals.
