Caio Santana received offers from both UD Leiria and Portimonense. Initially, Tondela had reached a preliminary agreement with Estrela da Amadora for his loan until the end of the season. However, Caio Santana preferred Portimonense over the other options, leading to the collapse of the Tondela deal. The loan move to Portimonense is expected to be officialized soon.
