Como officially signed Brazilian left-back Kaiki Bruno da Silva from Cruzeiro on a loan deal worth €2m with an obligation to make the transfer permanent for €12m, totalling €14m. The 23-year-old modern full-back brings speed, energy and attacking capability to Como's defensive line.
Kaiki earned his first senior cap for Brazil in April 2026 under head coach Carlo Ancelotti and was a member of Brazil's South American Under-20 Championship-winning squad in 2023. At Cruzeiro this season, he made 32 competitive appearances with 4 assists across domestic and Copa Libertadores competitions.
Coach Cesc Fabregas praised Kaiki's qualities: "He has the physical capacity to repeat runs, defend with intensity and give the team width in possession." The young left-back is expected to develop further under Como's coaching structure.
