Argentine Defender Alexander Barboza: Will He Choose Fortaleza or Botafogo?

A signing of Argentine defender Alexander Barboza for the Fortaleza took on the air of a soap opera. This is because the athlete also received a proposal from Botafogo in the last few days. However, the Northeast Diary found out that the Leão board remains confident in the defender’s arrival at Pici. Internally, it is believed that he signs the contract due to the project presented to him.

A Tricolor’s proposal has been in the player’s hands for at least two weeksbut that of the Rio de Janeiro team is financially more advantageous. The Rio press praised Barboza’s signing, but, as reported by Argentine journalist César Luis Merlo, the athlete has not yet announced where he will play.

Currently, the defender is free on the market after ending his contractual relationship with Libertad, from Paraguay, and has the power to define his future. With both proposals in hand, the tendency is for him to actually come to Brazil in 2024.

“PROS AND CONS”

Two factors may appear as different issues for Barboza to decide his future. One of them is in favor of Fortaleza, while the other “weighs against”.

On the positive side, take into account the fact that he has already worked with coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda. In 2018, the two were together at Defensa y Justicia, in Argentina, when the defender was loaned by River Plate. There is an expectation that ‘Mister’ can convince the defender to land at Pici.

On the negative aspect, which weighs in favor of Botafogo, is that the Rio club will play in the Libertadores, even if starting in the previous stages of the competition. This could end up weighing on the player’s decision, in addition, of course, to the financial issue.
