I finally bought a 2017 MBP, but I found a solution. I created a partition of about 20GB and installed OS X 10.10 Yosemite, keeping the BT4CAX card. After Yosemite was installed, the card was detected, and I decided to reboot on the macOS 10.12 Sierra partition, and TADAAAA the card was detected. I don't know why but it was okay for me.
