To improve the technical level of the left-back position, Coritiba held conversations with players based abroad, including 31-year-old Brazilian Paulinho from Midtjylland and Camilo Cándido of Cruz Azul. However, nothing is currently finalized regarding a potential transfer for either player. Paulinho, who joined the Danish club in July 2019, has a contract that runs until June 2026 and his current market value is €500k, according to Transfermarkt. In the 2025/2026 Superliga season, he has made 8 appearances and scored 1 goal.
