Costa Rican Goalkeeper Patrick Sequeira Set for Summer Exit from Casa Pia

Costa Rican goalkeeper Patrick Sequeira plans to leave Portuguese team Casa Pia this summer. The 26-year-old wants to advance his career and is attracting interest from clubs in Europe and South America.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Casa Pia turned down an offer from Brazilian team Bahia, part of City Football Group, in the winter transfer window. This shows they didn’t want to lose their top goalkeeper during the season. However, Sequeira now seems determined to leave in the summer. Several clubs from South America and Europe are interested in signing him.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Sequeira joined Casa Pia from UD Ibiza in July 2024 and quickly became their first-choice goalkeeper. Since then, he has made 22 league appearances for the Primeira Liga team. The Costa Rican has earned 13 caps for his national team as of November 2024, showcasing his growing international reputation.

Before Casa Pia, Sequeira played for clubs like UD Ibiza, Lugo, Celta Vigo B, and Real Unión. This season, his consistent performances have caught the attention of bigger clubs. This potentially gives him the chance to take his career to another level.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR SEQUEIRA?

With the summer transfer window nearing, Sequeira will carefully consider his options. Interest from both South American and European clubs gives the 26-year-old multiple pathways for his next move. Casa Pia may need to find a replacement as they prepare for the possibility of losing their first-choice goalkeeper after just one season.

Sequeira’s departure would be another significant transfer for Casa Pia, who have been active in the market. They recently signed players like Jose Fonte from Braga and Samuel Obeng from Real Oviedo. Casa Pia’s upcoming match is against Estoril, where Sequeira is expected to continue as the goalkeeper while his future is decided.
