João Victor Andrade Caetano (born 24 June 1999), commonly known as Caetano, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Corinthians.
Career
Corinthians
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Caetano played for the youth sides of Vasco da Gama and Botafogo before joining Corinthians' youth sides in 2018, aged 19.
Loans
On 3 July 2019, after featuring with the under-20s, Caetano was loaned to Série B side Oeste until the end of the year. He made his senior debut nine days later, starting in a 3–2 away loss to Ponte Preta.
Caetano scored his first senior goal on 13 September 2019, netting Oeste's second in a 3–0 home win over Operário Ferroviário. The following 7 January, after being regularly used, he moved to Coritiba also in a temporary deal.
In July 2020, Caetano left Coxa after being rarely used, and returned to Oeste again on loan. On 8 February 2021, after suffering relegation, Corinthians announced his loan to São Caetano for the 2021 Campeonato Paulista.
On 2 June 2021, Caetano was loaned to second division side CRB until the end of the year. An undisputed starter, CRB's president confirmed his departure on 13 December, and despite being deemed surplus to requirements by Timão, and was announced at Série A side Goiás on 31 December.
A regular starter during the 2022 Campeonato Goiano, Caetano made his top tier debut on 30 April of that year, starting in a 2–2 home draw against Atlético Mineiro. He scored his first goal in the category on 27 August, netting the opener in a 2–1 home win over rivals Atlético Goianiense.
Despite being a regular starter, Caetano left the Esmeraldino on 24 November 2022, as his loan deal was due to expire.
Breakthrough
Caetano returned to Corinthians for the 2023 season, and renewed his contract until 2024 on 23 January of that year. A backup to starters Gil and Bruno Méndez, he made his debut for the club on 4 March, starting in a 3–1 Campeonato Paulista home win over Santo André.
Caetano started the 2024 season as a first-choice, but lost his starting spot after the arrival of new signing Cacá and coach António Oliveira. He was separated from the squad in October, after rejecting a contract renewal.
