Out


It will be the first year for the team at Série A, but they are sure to be one of the least liked sides in the league already. Bragantino is a well established team in the country, but their partnership with the worldwide corporation won't make them many friends, let alone new fans. 2019 was close to a ride on the park as Red Bull Bragantino was way ahead from competition, holding firmly on the first place of Série B. Júlio César, Ligger, Ortiz and Aderlan at the back, Ryller, Barreto and Correia in the middle and Ytalo, Wesley and Peixoto in attack formed the backbone of the team that lifted the trophy in the end. The healthy financial status of the club allowed them to bring some interesting new signings to strengthen the team for the challenge in Série A. Cleiton, Weverton, Fabrício Bruno, Matheus Jesus, Thonny Anderson, and especially the winger Artur are robust, safe bets with Série A experience.

Target


It's very hard to foresee what can RB Bragantino achieve on their debut year in top flight. Nonetheless, they seem stronger than most teams that are expected to be involved in relegation struggle.
