My Take

Tetê interests me as a classic Brazilian winger archetype, and his nickname Furacão, the Hurricane, frames everything. At 175 cm he was never going to overpower defenders, so I imagine his game is all close control, acceleration and the willingness to take people on one-on-one from the right flank. There is something quietly satisfying about a young talent who circles back to Grêmio in his home state of Rio Grande do Sul. I tend to root for players who return to where they started, and I'll be curious to see whether this homecoming becomes the chapter where his promise finally settles into consistency.

Overview
