According to this Brazilian journalist ( don't know how reliable he is), Kaio has signed a pre-contract with us.
He’s not the only one reporting that so it’s most likely true.

intel needed

the brazilan researchers from sports interactive see him as the next big thing. then again, they rated barca flop keirrison as well.
It seems every kid is their next big thing. I mean sure you can tell when someone is talented or not but it doesn’t mean much these days, most won’t make it in Europe. Not on the big stage anyway.

At 19 we can only hope he’s good mentally and adapts well and maybe the curse will be broken @DAiDEViL

Is it for the U23 team or the first team he is referred as the new Neymar without the diving skills

Santos are furious with Kaio Jorge agent for the evolution of the deal, which thus plays against the Brazilian club who agreed with benefica. Juve will present an offer to Santos of around €1M/€1.5M to make all the parties involved satisfied.

Supposedly our 4th striker. Spent the last hour reading scout reports, following what Brazilians have said about him and watching YouTube videos. From what I've read and seen his no Neymar, nowhere as skilful nor agile, to be honest wasn't impressed with the videos, he looked like a poacher. Supposedly the Brazilian media or his agent had dubbed him new CR7, his got great off the ball movement, good technique and workrates commendable. Needs to work on his finishing, and decision making, though the latter comes as no surprise with him being so young.

Brazilians were in awe over his performance in Copa liberatodres as he helped them reach the final scoring in five goals. But im reading mixed reviews from them, some say his nothing special others class him as a top talent. Whatever the case Santos fans are pissed right now as he's potentially leaving for free.

I'm Brazilian and follow closely the Brazilian League. Sadly, Kaio Jorge is nothing special and so far, does not seem to be a Juve caliber player.

However, I have seen in the past other Brazilian players who were just "ok" but end up improving a lot after moving to Europe, such as Richarlison and Casemiro for instance.

We'll see what's going to happen with Kaio Jorge but there are much better prospects to go for in my opinion.

Transfer confirmed for the next summer. I honestly can't give good intel, never seen him full 90 mins. He seemed overrated to me 1 or 2 yrs ago (classic example of kid that is always in NT U15, U16 and so on, but you don't see what the fuss is about). But recently I've seen some glampses of potential while casually going through Santos games. Classic mobile CF style.

Good transfer all in all, absolutely, considering it's a free signing. But I can't say anything about star potential. Wouldn't have my hopes up in that sense.

Btw, considering Milan was also interested in him, I wouldn't exclude the possibility he has an agreement with Juve to be first team player, avoiding the endless loop of getting loaned out. His agent is very, very influential.
