Carlos Augusto, from Serie B to the Champions League and back to Brazil

Carlos Augusto has turned his Italian journey into a story of steady growth. After arriving in Italian football and starting out in Serie B, the Inter wing-back has reached Europe’s biggest stage and scored in the Champions League. That achievement comes alongside his return to the national team, three years after his previous call-up.

His development took him from the second tier to the Nerazzurri shirt, where he has become an increasingly important option in the squad rotation. The European goal has brought further attention to a player able to provide pace, versatility and attacking presence. For Carlos Augusto, the international call-up confirms the step forward he has made over the last few seasons.

Inter beat Shakhtar 1-0 in the Champions League on October 21 and then defeated Fiorentina and Venezia 2-1 and 2-0 respectively. The next European fixture is away to Feyenoord on Tuesday, November 3, at 21:00. Before that comes the derby against Milan on Saturday, October 31, at 20:45: Carlos Augusto enters the match after a significant personal moment.
