Edmilson was part of the Brazil squad which won the World Cup in 2002 and has played for European Giants Barcelona and Lyon.
He believes he can help the younger players to progress at Ceara and help the team in the Brazilian Campeonato.
Edmilson said: “I am an experienced player and I have been through many things in my career.
“I can be helpful in and out of the field and this was proved in the last game, when I contributed a goal. I came to help and be ready for whenever Ceara need me.”
Ceara travel to Vasco da Gama tomorrow with Heleno available after suspension and a fully fit squad.
