Meiji Yasuda Life J1 League Kashiwa Reysol seems to be serious about acquiring FW Pedro Raul, who belongs to Botafogo FR of Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A (Brazil 1st Division). The Brazilian media “O DIA” reported on the 30th.
Pedro Raúl, who is 193 cm tall, joined the Botafogo FR from Primeira Liga (Portugal 1st Division) Vitoria in January last year and has scored seven goals in 25 league games this season. It is reported that several clubs outside Brazil, including Japan, are showing interest in the player’s departure last week, and he was off the bench in the match against Fluminense in Round 32 on the 25th. ..
Among them, “O DIA” reports that the J-League club aiming to acquire Pedro Raul is Kashiwa Reysol. According to this, Kashiwa Reysol has already started negotiations between clubs with Botafogo FR, and it seems that it has offered a transfer fee of 2 million dollars (about 209 million yen). In addition, Pedro Raúl’s ownership is 30% owned by his former club, Vitoria, and discussions will be held on this ownership.
Initially, Kashiwa Reysol was aiming to acquire Ceará SC’s FW Cléber, but it seems that the target was switched to Pedro Raul after the negotiations ended in a breach. The contract period between Pedro Raul and Botafogo FR will expire in December 2021, but will Kashiwa Reysol decide to acquire the player in a battle between multiple clubs?
