The biggest winner of the Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior has 9 players developed in the youth academy, with Roni standing out as a recurring option as a defensive midfielder since last year. Adson is also a valuable asset for the team with his speed on the wings, and the young player Matheus Araújo has been given chances by Lázaro, even scoring in the victory against Cruzeiro in the Brasileirão debut.

Calcio Deal Review About The Squad
Corinthians didn’t start the 2023 season very well, especially in the Paulistão, a competition in which the club has a great tradition. They were eliminated in the quarterfinals by Ituano. The Timão also struggled in the first leg of the Copa do Brasil’s third round, suffering a 2-0 loss against the modest Remo.
The team seems to be trying to adapt to the new coach Fernando Lázaro, who is gradually adjusting the team to his style. The highlight of Coringão is their attack, which boasts two fantastic players, Roger Guedes and Yuri Alberto.
However, the team is greatly missing Renato Augusto, who is currently injured. Renato is responsible for leading the team with good performances and is the technical leader of the group, as well as a maestro on the field. With the midfielder’s return, Corinthians hopes to improve their performance and try to secure a spot in the Libertadores in this Brasileirão.
