In 2025, striker Paulo Baya received opportunities at clubs in the Serie A of the Brazilian Championship, such as Fluminense and Ceará. During the season, the player joined the Tricolor Carioca team in the FIFA Club World Cup, held in the United States.

After leaving Fluminense, the striker wore the jersey of Ceará, where he played 16 matches, but did not find the net. With that, he returned to Primavera.

In 2026, the player returns to defend the Indaiatuba club after three consecutive years on loan, bringing with him the experience of having participated in a FIFA Club World Cup.

Primavera begins in Paulistão on the 10th, against Guarani, at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at the Brinco de Ouro da Princesa. Next season, the club will also participate in the Copa do Brasil for the first time in its history.
