Despite the departure of coach Marcelo Oliveira, Cruzeiro continue to look for young players who can strengthen their squad as they were able to do with Lucas Silva last season and Alisson this year. This time the arrival is Santiago, one of the sensations of the last Copa São Paulo.
The 18-year-old played in the competition for São Caetano, scoring eight goals. A performance that must have pleased Cruzeiro bosses who snapped him up for their Under-20 squad, but who will also surely look to blood him in their first team as the season progresses.
