The club officially disclosed that Brazilian foreigner Augusto reached an early termination agreement with the team, and the 33-year-old veteran may return to Corinthians, the starting point of his soccer career.
When the news of Augusto's decision to terminate his contract early swept through the city, the hearts of countless Beijing fans could not help but ripple. In the past nearly six years, Augusto has not only been synonymous with the Brazilian super engine, but also the

An indispensable totem in the hearts of fans. Mention

The core of the field, must mention its name; talk about off-field caring big brother, is also its figure. Augusto's "pride" of the name, from his never-say-die temperament and unremitting spirit, which is incomparable to many foreign aid, but also an important reason why he was loved by fans in the capital.
Unfortunately, the outbreak of the epidemic has caused "Pride" to say goodbye with an early termination of its contract.

But the moments he left behind and the fun he brought to the fans will be etched in our memories forever. We are looking forward to seeing him when the epidemic dissipates and the new stadium is completed.

The first foreign captain was able to return and feel the cheers of the fans once again.

Augusto may not have expected that he could leave such a deep footprint on the land. Initially, under Zaccheroni's tutelage, Augusto got off to a rocky start in Beijing, but with the return of the Olympic gold medal in Rio, his reputation has risen. Because he is hungry to win and wants to lead the team forward in his own way.
All those who have witnessed Augusto's games will agree on one thing: the Brazilian's skills and awareness are top-notch, whether it's long passes or short passes, organizing the attack or completing a shot, he seems to be able to do everything. "High level" is the first impression he left on us. In

In the eyes of the players, he is not as full of spirit as Kanoute, but he is a deservedly big player, which is why Brazil's manager Tite has been full of trust in him for a long time. It is important to realize that coming to the Chinese Super League means being away from the national team and the high level of competition for many players, but Augusto has proved with his performance that none of this is a foregone conclusion.
If not for this truly high level of play, Augusto would not have been able to save time and time again the

in jeopardy. For example, the 2019 season's home game against Guangzhou R&F would have been better if it weren't for his last-minute, left-footed, long-range shot that

The winning streak could have come to a screeching halt; another example is last season's AFC Champions League trip, where Augusto led his teammates through the ranks and successfully advanced to the East Asian Zone Top 4, creating a team record. There are countless classic moments like this, and over the past five years or so, the

Augusto's contribution has been instrumental in jumping from a top 6 team in the table to title contenders.
-Off-site humanism -
In addition to his skill on the ball, Augusto has also shown great emotional intelligence off the pitch. He has not only helped his team improve their record, but also given great support to his teammates on a spiritual level. Simply put, as long as you are willing to learn, everyone around Augusto can be improved. Zhang Xizhe is the best example of this, even though the Brazilian's arrival has somehow influenced

The starting lineup at No. 10, but he's improved all-around under the tutelage of his big brother.
The ultimate goal of a team hiring high-level foreign aid is undoubtedly to improve the team's performance. If they can also support the team on a spiritual level, it is undoubtedly an additional gain. In this regard, Augusto is undoubtedly a valuable investment. In the season when Yang Zhi gradually lost his starting position, Augusto, who wears the No. 5 gown, has become one of the team's regular captains, and the captain's armband is more of a responsibility for the Brazilian. At this point, Augusto showed his own excessive emotional intelligence, whether on the field or off the field, he is a model for foreign aid.
If Augusto is put in the

The career of Augusto is divided into two stages, and becoming captain should be a "watershed". Before that, Augusto's style of play was relatively egotistical, and his integration with his teammates was still lacking; after he became the captain, he was able to contribute to both offense and defense, running more actively, encouraging more and complaining less.

The team's record has risen as a result. In interviews, he has expressed more than once his desire to lead the team to more success.
-Feelings for Beijing-
Considering Beijing as a second home
In fact, in addition to the above mentioned words, Augusto in the media interviews will often mention "continue to fight for Beijing". Because he loves this city and has a special feeling for its fans. When he came to China, he certainly never imagined that he would become the "favorite" of the Chinese city, or even become the label of a team. For a Brazilian, the fact that he has made Beijing his second home shows his determination to integrate.
Two years ago, when things were still at a normal pace, Augusto would ride an electric bike to the industrial stadium to train, and in his free time he would push his son for a walk in the park with his wife, no different from ordinary Beijing citizens, both cozy and grounded. The Brazilians also greet fans in restaurants and fulfill their requests for autographs and photos. If you speak German or Spanish, the shy man will open up and chat with you about the game, sharing his feelings. A soccer star's attitude? That doesn't exist with Augusto, at least not in the minds of Beijing fans.
Although Augusto is not as fluent in Chinese as Mažić, who communicates in "Pekingese", he still recognizes the city and the club very well. Otherwise, he wouldn't have donned the

s scarf, much less appearing as a guest in the stands of the CBA's Beijing Shougang team to follow a game of the crosstown basketball team.
If you remember his letter back to a young girl about writing essays two years ago, you'll surely be impressed by his heartwarming gesture. "He loves Beijing as much as he loves his hometown, Rio", a quote from a friend close to Pride and a true reflection of his past 5+ years.
Friends part without saying goodbye! We look forward to the moment when all is calm, Ao Bone will return to Beijing and receive the highest level of courtesy from the Beijing fans at the New Industrial Stadium.
