Kaio César marks Corinthians debut with Supercopa assist against Flamengo | OneFootball

Kaio César marked his Corinthians debut with an assist for Yuri Alberto against Flamengo, sealing the Supercopa do Brasil title. According to Meu Timao, he was announced last Thursday after a loan move from Al-Hilal of Saudi Arabia, and the unveiling drew criticism from Saudis and Islamists due to a detail in the club’s graphic.

Introduced on 32 minutes of the second half, he received the ball in midfield and back-heeled into the path of the number 9 in stoppage time. Alberto ran through to finish.

Wearing 37, Kaio César created two big chances, completed two long passes and successful dribbles, and won three duels. He impressed despite limited minutes.

Corinthians do not have an outright assist leader in 2026. Pedro Raul, Rodrigo Garro, Gustavo Henrique, Vitinho, Ryan and Kaio César each have one.

At Parque São Jorge, the expectation is that Dorival Júnior will use him down the right, which is where he featured against Flamengo.
