Fifteen stops with 54% success embellished with a goal in an empty cage, crucial interventions at the hottest moments, Cesar De Almeida was one of the pillars of Toulouse’s success, last Saturday, in Cesson-Rennes (31- 23), a victory that breathed new life into the Fenix. The Brazilian goalkeeper, who entered during the first period to relieve his struggling teammate Jef Lettens, was one of the architects of Toulouse’s success. Which earned him to appear in the “7 of the week” of the Starligue. “It is true that Cesar is good at the moment. Every time he comes into play, he is good, he fights”, underlines Philippe Gardent, the manager of Fenix, who appreciates the services of the Brazilian international who is going through an excellent period.
In sight under the Fenix jersey since the beginning of the year, it is also under that of the Brazilian selection with which he participated in the World Cup in Egypt in January then at the TQO in early March which saw Brazil snatch its ticket. for the Tokyo Olympics.
Departing in June
On the momentum, Cesar De Almeida has a series of good performances with Toulouse and at 32, he is asserting himself as a safe bet. Several Spanish and French clubs are not mistaken and are giving him soft eyes, especially as Fenix Toulouse has decided not to renew his contract at the end of the season. Rather surprising decision when he shows an irreproachable state of mind and his understanding with Jef Lettens seems perfect …
The reception of PSG threatened
Still, tonight, Toulouse will need a De Almeida in great shape to exist in Dunkirk, where Fenix will update its calendar (there will be 3 more games late). As for the reception of the (very) big piece of March, PSG, scheduled for Friday, it is threatened due to cases of Covid in the Parisian club.
