American millionaires are on the rise.
Botafogo inflicted a scathing 3-0 on Vasco da Gama on Wednesday. Solid championship leader Brazilian, John Textor‘s club counts six points ahead of its runner-up, Palmeirasone month from the end of the competition. THE Alvinegros have not lifted any trophy since 2018 and are close to perfection this year since they will also have a Copa Libertadores finale to play against Atlético Mineiro on November 30. Obviously, Textor is jubilant.
“If you look at the way we build the team, it’s not just about the players we buy, it’s also about the players we find. The recruiting department is honestly the best I have ever seen in football”bluntly believes the OL boss in comments reported by Globo. Skatos thus takes as an example “Júnior Santos, from the Japanese second division” and “Igor Jesus, from the United Arab Emirates, on free transfer”. Both men scored again last night. Jesus is particularly in the sights of Premier League clubsLeague and Bundesliga. “We are already planning to strengthen ourselves significantly for next year”warns Textor.
OL won’t have to look too far to recruit next summer.
