Fábio Augusto was a technical and versatile midfielder, with good vision of the game, passing skills, ball control and the ability to play both as a playmaker and in more defensive roles in the midfield. Discovered by Flamengo, his first bright moment was in Guarani in the early 1990s, he stood out for his skill with his right foot and his quality in passing and crossing, which led him to Atlético Mineiro, where he enjoyed one of his most consistent phases. He later played for major clubs such as Corinthians and Botafogo, always being remembered as a player with a cerebral and elegant profile, who contributed more with tactical intelligence than physical explosion. Although he never became an absolute protagonist in big teams, Fábio Augusto built a solid career, marked by consistency and the respect of coaches who saw him as a useful piece to give rhythm and balance to the midfield.
