The new owner of OL, the American businessman John Textor, is also the majority shareholder of Botafogo. “This negotiation opens a new international market for the Brazilian club. It strengthens the partnership between Botafogo, Lyon and Resende (Pelé Academy, which was already part of the OL network), with a solid path for young Brazilian athletes who wish to play in Europe“, specifies the club.

In 2022, Jeffinho has made 24 Brazilian Serie A appearances, scoring two goals and providing three assists. His arrival could fill the departures of Tetê, leaving for Leicesteror even Rayan Cherki, if the PSG rumor is confirmed.
