Caio Henrique discussed the difficult weeks following his grade two injury to his right thigh, which occurred on 6 March during a Monaco match against PSG. Initially expected to recover within a month, he had to wait almost two months before returning to competition, without having the necessary time to regain his rhythm before the final squad announcement. Now at Ajax, the Brazilian defender aims to return to the national team during the next cycle by regularly competing in the Champions League.
