Midfielder Breno Bidon has established himself under Dorival Júnior. Starting in the last four games for the team, the young Corinthians player has taken on a leading role in midfield and has become the most used outfield player by the coach.
With his performance in the 3-0 victory over Mirassol last Saturday, Bidon reached 26 matches since Dorival’s arrival. In doing so, he surpassed Talles Magno, who had 24 and previously led the list.

The player who has appeared most often under the current coaching staff is goalkeeper Hugo Souza, who has played in all 30 games with Dorival. However, he will miss the team’s upcoming derby against Santos next Wednesday due to suspension.
His absence was already expected, since the keeper will represent the Brazilian National Team in a friendly against Japan on the 14th, the day before the match against Peixe.
Breno Bidon has become a key player in Corinthians’ setup in recent games. Previously, he alternated spots with José Martínez and André Carrillo as a second defensive midfielder or left-sided midfielder. However, with Rodrigo Garro unavailable, he started playing more centrally, as the team’s main playmaker.
He played this role in the last four matches for Timão, against Sport, Flamengo, Internacional and Mirassol. The youngster put in good performances and received praise from both fans and assistant coach Lucas Silvestre, who led the team from the sidelines last Saturday. In his view, Bidon has “Brazil National Team potential”.
“Breno is a joker. We can put him in any position. He’s a player who adapts easily. He’s been on a great rise, and if he keeps up this level, you can be sure his path is the National Team, for everything he offers the team both defensively and offensively. I see him much more focused, better understanding the club’s moment and his own situation. His path is one of great success, largely because of his attitude. I see that, in Garro’s absence, we’ve been able to put him closer to goal and he maintains the same level,” analyzed Lucas.
In 43 games played this season, Bidon has started 32 times and has scored just one goal, in addition to one assist.
However, according to data from Sofascore, a site specializing in statistics, the 20-year-old averages one key pass per match. Furthermore, defensively, he recovers more than four balls per game and has a good average of tackles per match (1.8) – higher than Raniele, for example (1.6).
