Cédric loses right-back spot to new signing at São Paulo | OneFootball

The right-back Cédric started the season as a starter at São Paulo under Hernán Crespo, but lost his place in the team after the arrival of a new competitor for the position. The signing of Lucas Ramon, who was at Mirassol, changed the scenario on the right flank of the Tricolor.

Since Lucas Ramon was announced on February 3rd, Cédric has hardly had any more opportunities in the team. The right-back only played once during this period: in the 2-1 victory over Primavera, in the Paulista Championship.

After this match, Cédric was not used again. The player, in fact, did not appear among Crespo's squad in São Paulo's last three games in the Paulistão, against Ponte Preta, Red Bull Bragantino, and Palmeiras.

In the Brazilian Championship, the right-back also had limited participation. The only time he took the field was in the competition's debut, in the victory over Flamengo. Against Santos and Coritiba, he was available for the match but remained on the bench. Against Grêmio, he was not on the list of players.

Besides Lucas Ramon, Cédric also competes for the position with the young Maik. The 21-year-old right-back was also a challenge for the Portuguese player, even before the signing of the former Mirassol player, which intensified the competition for the position.
