Pointed as guilty for the results for openly deciding not to hire, the Athletic board left the defense of Athletico in the hands of Thiago Heleno, Kaique Rocha and Gamarra as quarterbacks.

After the pressure suffered, the board decided to bring another quarterback by loan, although it was not a decisive reinforcement. The player is Marcos Victor, leaning on Bahia. The 22-year-old athlete has five games in 2024 – the last of them in March, that is, more than five months ago.

Marcos Victor must arrive in Curitiba on Sunday (1) to carry out examinations and sign a loan contract until half of 2025, according to the GE.

The quarterback has passes through Forest, Ceará and Bahia. In 2023, he played four minutes in Brasileirão. In 2024, he didn't even get on the field for the competition.

Marcos Victor played only five matches in the current season – three for Baiano and two for the Northeast Cup. He played for the last time in Bahia 1×0 March 24th, Maranhão.

If confirmed, Marcos Victor will compete with Kaique Rocha, Mateo Gamarra and Thiago Heleno.

In addition, the 22-year-old player will become Athletic's second hire in this window. Before, the club had already closed with half Bruno Praxedes, reserve of Vasco.

After a record surplus in 2023, Athletico must close the window with a player leaning on the Bahia and a reservation of Vasco. Reinforcements may be entered until Monday (2).
