THE Botafogo, under the support of the Banco XP, received a proposal from investors for the SAF (Football Corporation) and is close to being sold. However, according to the website “Ge”, the negotiation that is underway came at a time of political differences within the club. With this, the fans alvinegra launched the campaign “#ClosedComJorgeBraga” on social networks in support of the club’s CEO, Jorge Braga.
Jorge Braga, together with the president Durcesio Mello and Banco XP, leads negotiations with investors for the club. The proposal, which arrived this Monday, pleased Botafogo and a counterproposal will be made. What is known about investors is that they are strategic, know and operate football.
The project of Botafogo S/A is not from now. The planning has already been led by others, but there was no conclusion. The last one, passed through the hands of Gustavo Magalhães, but there was no continuity. After that, XP gained exclusivity for the investor search.
The former president of Botafogo, Carlos Augusto Montenegro, is a supporter of the proposal by Gustavo Magalhães, which was brought to XP in November, but was not approved. Montenegro, in audios and messages in groups, came to criticize the ongoing project and XP’s exclusivity in leading the negotiations.
This Thursday night, the Botafogo fans launched a campaign on social networks not only in support of CEO Jorge Braga, but also in criticism of former president Montenegro. The hashtag created came to be among the five most commented subjects on Twitter in Brazil.
