Soares who’s really good at defending and helping with attacks used to play for Sporting CP Southampton and Arsenal. Having him stay at São Paulo is going to make their defense stronger cause he’s got lots of experience. When Soares came to South America it was like starting fresh and the team really needs him.

Dudu’s Uncertain Future at Cruzeiro
While Soares is staying put at São Paulo Brazilian forward Dudu might be leaving Cruzeiro. People are saying the club is trying to end his contract which means he could leave. Dudu’s really fast and good at scoring goals and has been super important for how Cruzeiro attacks. If he goes it’ll really change how the team plays and he might end up somewhere else in Brazil or maybe even in another country. Dudu’s played really well for lots of Brazilian teams like Palmeiras showing he can fit in anywhere and score goals.
Implications for Brazilian Football
All these players moving around is happening while Brazilian football is changing a lot. Like how Corinthians just got Dorival Júnior as their manager to make things better after Tite left. And Vasco da Gama is having problems since Fábio Carille went away which shows how hard it is for managers when everyone wants them to win right away. It just shows how Brazilian football keeps changing and teams gotta keep up.
