Born in Betim, Minas Gerais, Cauan de Almeida began his career as a coach of the under-17 team of Betim. After working as a coach of the same category at Associação Mineira de Desenvolvimento Humano, he moved to Portugal in 2014, and was an assistant coach at F.C. Infesta.[1]

Cauan de Almeida was in charge of the club for two Campeonato Mineiro matches (two wins) before returning to his previous role after the appointment of Lisca; during the campaign, he also replaced Lisca on several opportunities due to the manager's suspension or illnesses.[4] On 15 June, he was again interim after Lisca resigned.[5]
