Kaique Rocha Lima

Kaique Rocha's career has been a story of movement between continents. He began at São Paulo FC before joining Santos, where he signed his first professional contract and made his senior debut in 2018. A year later, Sampdoria brought him to Italy, and he made his senior debut for the Blucerchiati in October 2020.

A loan spell took him back to Brazil with Internacional between 2021 and 2022, and when his Sampdoria contract was terminated by mutual consent in January 2023, he joined Athletico Paranaense on a free transfer. At Athletico, wearing the number 4 shirt, he won the Campeonato Paranaense in 2023.

In January 2025 he went back to Internacional, and lifted the Campeonato Gaúcho with them that year. By July 2025 he had moved on again, this time to Portugal with Casa Pia, taking the number 27 shirt.

At youth level, the defender represented Brazil at Under-17 level in 2018 and later stepped up to the Under-18s the following year, without going on to add senior caps. Those early years also brought silverware with Santos, where he won the Campeonato Paulista Sub-13 and the Copa Zico Sub-15.
