FC Dallas has once again revisited its connections in Brazil to secured the transfer of Kaick from Gremio.
The 19-year-old midfielder was first linked with Dallas a week ago after Tom Bogert broke news of a potential $4m deal.
Kaick – pronounced Kah-ee-kay – was a part of the 2025 Campeonato Gaucho winning Gremio roster, making his senior debut on February 25 against Ypiranga FC. He was also a member of the 2023 winning side for the U-20 version of the state championship in Rio Grande do Sul, and was named captain of Gremio’s U-20 team.
Filling a need for depth at defensive midfield, Kaick joins on a four-year contract with a one-year club option. He will occupy one of Dallas’ four U22 roster spots, as well as an international roster spot.
