The confirmation came directly from head coach Luís Castro during a press conference following a friendly victory over Cruzeiro.
Jovane Cabral: The New Tricolor Talent
Coach Luís Castro did not hold back his praise for the new signing. “He was at the World Cup. He plays on the left wing and in the middle. He is coming to join the group to help us achieve our goals for the season. I believe he has the ability to integrate into our squad,” the coach stated, showing confidence in the athlete’s game. Jovane Cabral‘s path includes appearances in two crucial Cape Verde matches at the World Cup, where he started against Spain and Argentina, demonstrating his value in decisive moments.
International Experience for the Imortal
Playing for the African national team, Jovane Cabral displayed the quality that previously took him to various European leagues. The player was a free agent following the end of his contract with Estrela Amadora in Portugal.

His development in the Sporting youth system and stints at clubs like Lazio, Salernitana, and Olympiacos add significant weight to his experience.
The arrival of Jovane Cabral injects even more grit and talent into the Grêmio squad, promising great performances and plenty of passion on the pitch. Fans are already eagerly waiting to see him in action, wearing the Tricolor jersey and fighting for the club’s objectives. The season promises plenty of excitement!
