Gabriel Silva/Ceará SC

Recently arrived at Ceará, left-back Sávio was officially introduced to the press on Thursday afternoon, the 23rd, in a press conference held at the Club’s headquarters in Porangabuçu. Sávio made his debut for Alvinegro last Wednesday, the 22nd, in a match against CRB, and highlighted the team’s improvement, while also looking ahead to the People’s Team’s next clash next Sunday, the 26th, against São Bernardo, away from home.

"Yesterday you could already see that in the second half our team was more balanced, able to press a bit more and take the game to the opponent. [...] We’re already traveling tomorrow, we have a game this weekend against São Bernardo, and depending on who the coach chooses to play, I’ll be available to put in a good performance, help the team, and leave there with a positive result," he said.

Experienced in winning promotion to the top tier of the Brazilian Championship, most recently with Remo/PA in the 2025 season, Sávio also pointed out how that experience can contribute to his arrival at Ceará and spoke about the responsibility of wearing Vozão’s shirt.

"We’re going to fight until the end. We know the squad has many young players, we can’t put the responsibility on them, but they also have to take on their responsibilities. We have a group full of players who are idols at the Club, and when needed, I, because of my various achievements, also have to take on my responsibilities, even though I arrived only a short time ago. We have to stick together, work hard, keep our heads on straight, and work seriously, and soon we’ll get out of this situation," he stated.

The player also highlighted how much it helps to already know part of the Alvinegro squad, having played alongside players such as Pavani and Nico Ferreira, in addition to having already been coached by Daniel Paulista, and how those connections can help him build chemistry with the squad more quickly.

"I know coach Daniel, he arrived at Remo during a not-so-good period and we managed to climb to the top part of Série B. [...] We know that our team has me, Pavani and Nico, who have already played together, so we know each other and we talk, even though we joined the squad a little later. We’ve been talking a lot, and over the course of the competition, you can be sure that we’re going to change what’s happening so that positive situations can happen," he concluded.
