Caio Henrique, pending Simeone's decision

Caio Henrique (23 years old) is back. The Brazilian was loaned this season in the Guild of his country and the loan ended in December, but Atlético decided to end it prematurely to join the rest of the squad. The goal was have a replacement for Lodi, since this year he was the only player in the squad who did not have his position doubled. Despite the fact that more than two months ago the mattress club communicated its decision to the Guild, It will not be until this week when Caio joins training with the group, although he cannot play the Champions as he is not registered. I also couldn't play in LaLiga and, therefore, the club decided to give him vacations until the domestic tournament ended and the team began to prepare for the final part of the course.

However, this period will serve to enter the team dynamics and that Simeone can see if he gives the level to be part of the squad next season or it is better to find a way out. In case you are not among the chosen ones, suitors are not going to miss you. In recent weeks it has come to light in various European media the interest that the Brazilian winger has generated in Portugal and France. Specifically, in the Portuguese market, the country's two greats (Benfica and Porto) have him on their agenda for the next course, while in the French country Olympique de Marseille wants to get their services. The three will play Champions next season, so it would be good destinations to continue their sports career in case they do not have a place in the rojiblanca squad.

Despite being a semi-unknown to the general public, Caio belongs to Atlético since February 2016, when he joined his lower categories (specifically Juvenile A) coming from the Santos. It reached the branch and, from there, he was chaining assignments to Brazilian clubs (Paraná, Fluminense and Gremio) until I get a shot at the first team now. At the beginning Caio was a midfielder, but in Brazil he became a left back due to the needs of the script and it is precisely this change in position that gives him options to stay. However, it will not be easy at all because He is competing for the substitute position in Lodi with a youth player who has left very good feelings in the final stage of LaLiga: Manu Sánchez. Between the two they will play a place in the team and, although for the moment it seems that the subsidiary player has an advantage, perhaps the Brazilian will manage to turn the situation around and convince Cholo that it can be useful to him.
