The club did a complete renovation of their stadium during 2008; however the enthusiasm did not transfer to the field and Gama performed poorly. During the summer, Cauê joined Capital Clube de Futebol, another club from Brasilia, that by August was undertaking a major project, merging with Goiás state club Cristalina Futebol Clube, and forming a new squad. This adventure lasted until early 2012, when Cauê moved to Canoas Sport Club playing in the Campeonato Gaúcho.
