Another young talent from Ceará has had his contract renewed. Caio, an 18-year-old midfielder who made his debut for the professional team in the final rounds of the 2026 Brazilian Série B Championship, has signed a contract extension with the Team of the People through the end of the 2028 season.

Caio joined Ceará in 2022, then aged 15, to join the club’s Under-15 team. After a spell with the Under-17s, the player had been part of the Under-20 squad since the 2025 season, still at 18 years old. This year, Caio has played 1 match for the senior team and 8 for the Under-20s.

Caio is part of the squad coached by Daniel Paulista, has frequently been included in matchday squads, and made his professional debut in the match against Juventude/RS in the Brazilian Série B Championship. The player said he is delighted with the new contract and hopes to live up to the club’s expectations.

“Renewing with Ceará is another dream come true. Since I arrived at Cidade Vozão, I’ve given my best for the club, and this recognition is very important. I’ll work even harder to prove worthy of the effort and the trust of everyone involved in this process,” he said.

Caio is another player developed in the black-and-white youth academy who is now part of the professional squad and has signed a contract extension. In addition to him, names such as Melk, João Gabriel, Pedro Gilmar, and Enzo Lodovico have also signed through the end of 2028.
