Calcio Deal Review About The Squad
It’s a new and different season for Massa Bruta. The team is competing in the Brazilian Serie A without coach Maurício Barbieri, who led the club for two years and is now managing Vasco.
Nevertheless, the club remains well-organized and committed to its well-defined model.
Red Bull Bragantino relies on young players with the possibility of future sales to teams in Brazil and abroad.
To achieve this, they maintain a sharp scouting and observation department in Brazil and South America.
The team combines young talents with experienced players to provide the necessary support throughout the demanding calendar, and they acquired the experienced Eduardo Sasha from Atlético Mineiro as the main reinforcement of the season.
Massa Bruta relies on a game of speed and transition, with fast and skillful players operating on the wings.
Having reached the semi-finals of the Paulista Championship, the prospects are positive, and if they maintain their tactical organization, they have a chance to finish the Brazilian Championship in a high position on the table.
Spot Expectation for Calcio Deal
They are fighting for a spot in the Pre-Libertadores.
