Part 5/7:
The rebuilding process at Cruzeiro has brought in several prominent players, many of whom hold legendary status at other clubs in Brazil. Names like Dudu and Fagner are among those who, despite their rich histories, joined Cruzeiro under less-than-ideal circumstances, notably being phased out or relegated to secondary roles at their previous teams.
Analysts note that the heavy investment in these marquee names does not guarantee a seamless transition or success on the pitch. The club's roster is filled with talent; however, the players need to prove their effectiveness collectively, especially as many are in the twilight of their careers and grappling with inconsistency.
