Damian Suarez is already working with the cast of Botafogo. The experienced player, in addition to helping on the field in a sector considered lacking, will also help the development of Matthew PonteUruguayan right-back like him.
Coach Tiago Nunes himself already spoke about this in the press conference after the defeat to Flamengo, last Wednesday. Uruguayan journalist Pablo Gama explained, in an interview with “ESPN”, how Suárez can be useful in Mateo Ponte’s growth.
– I think it can help him in two big aspects: football and extrafield. Regarding the first, Suárez can help by telling us some secrets of the position, how to know when to attack and, mainly, defensive issues – began Pablo Gama.
– In the extra football aspect, Suárez can help the young Ponte to understand everything it means to be a professional player and how much players must take care of themselves to remain in the elite for so many years – he added.
Damián Suárez has already been called up to Uruguay’s senior team, while Mateo Ponte was competing in the Pre-Olympic with Celeste’s under-23 team. In addition to them, Botafogo has another Uruguayan in the squad: Diego Hernández, who hasn’t had many opportunities and wasn’t even on the bench against Flamengo.

O Botafogo was the only club that made a proposal to buy Luiz Henrique at the beginning of 2024, revealed Amaury Nunesone of the player’s representatives, in live on “Canal do Nicola” this Tuesday (6/2). He revealed that the attacker received loan offers from Fluminense, Flamengo, Corinthians, Everton e RB Leipzigbut only Botafogo “came along” and managed to negotiate with the Betisclosing the operation at a potential €20 million (almost R$107 million).
– Luiz Henrique’s move to Botafogo began at the end of the year. He was in the Betis reserves, he had already played very well, he had been there for a year and a half, his plan was to stay in Europe. He was performing, but this season another player arrived, he had a slight discomfort, he lost space, this player started to do very well, Luiz ended up losing space and we explored the market. Luiz Henrique wanted to go to the national team, at least to the under-23s, and he would need to be playing – he started.
– Obviously first we went to Fluminense, we talked, we talked about the possibility of a loan, Mário (Bittencourt, president) quickly started negotiations, but then Luiz Henrique started to perform and the story started to change within Betis, which would only release him. it for sale. Flamengo did consult, yes, proposals came from Everton and Leipzig on loan and then Textor appeared, who was already interested in Luiz back then. – continued.
– Corinthians also made a loan offer, when Betis could no longer accept a loan. It was a very good proposal, very close to what would be from Flamengo. But Betis didn’t want to loan him out anymore, and the prices aren’t what all clubs in Brazil can afford. The purchase proposal was only from Botafogo, those from Europe were also on loan – he stressed.
Amaury Nunes also explained the soap opera in which the negotiations with Botafogo turned into. According to him, the transaction was not closed when journalist Fabrizio Romano, the biggest market expert in the world, predicted the striker’s move to Glorioso.
– The end of the window there is January 31st, Fabrizio Romano’s post was on the 28th and we were very far from the possibility of closing. There was a proposal and Betis signaled that it would accept, but the proposal for the player was not yet with us, we had no idea of salaries and it was not the plan to return to Brazil, so much so that we were negotiating with Leipzig and Everton. Then negotiations began on Botafogo, Lyon, the possibility of Crystal Palace, salaries… By the 31st, he had not signed the contract – these.
The representative also explained in detail another controversial point: the possible transfer clause to Lyon in the middle or end of 2024. According to him, there is no defined deadline and this will be debated jointly by all parties involved.
– There is no deadline. There is a clause that was included in the contract, at our request and at Luiz’s, so that he can go to Lyon if there is interest from the player and Lyon and, obviously, understanding Botafogo’s moment. It is a clause that is very respectful on both sides, it is not an obligation that he has to go to Lyon in the middle of the year or in January. It will be understanding the moment of the two clubs, of Luiz, and then knowing how to make a decision. The contract is with Botafogo and he will do his best to help Botafogo – explained Amaury, highlighting:
– The idea was to make it clear in the contract that, at some point, during these five years of contract, he could go to one of the Eagle clubs in Europe.

– Botafogo took the team off the field for Matheuzinho. What I know is that there is a name that is very interesting and works outside of Brazilian football at the moment. There’s already something hot there – said Venê during the “SBT Sports Rio” program this Wednesday (31/1).
The journalist, however, said he did not know the name of this new black and white target. Venê said that there is secrecy due to the fear that an auction could start or arouse the interest of rivals in the player.

With little time to pre-season until the start of the Carioca Championship, the Botafogo traveled to Itu last Wednesday and stayed at the Otho Hotel Convention & Spa, training in two periods every day and working hard under the command of coach Tiago Nunes. The physical trainer Edy Carlos Soares praised the period away from Rio, highlighting a better environment and control over food and sleep, in addition, of course, to activities in the field.
– We know the great challenges we face this season. The fact that we leave Rio and come here is important, these are days of hard work and commitment, we can work very intensely and have the opportunity to have very firm control over our diet and sleep. Coexistence is also very important, Tiago is able to have different interactions on different specific topics, not only during training, but also at night. It has been a very fruitful few days – said Edy, to Botafogo TV.
– The club made every effort to ensure that we had the best structure here. All the material we have in Lonier we brought here. We have to focus on this moment of everyone being together, being able to work and recover with quality. The hotel is very good and in two, three minutes everyone is down here for training, the gym… Everyone can carry out their work in the best possible way – added the physical trainer.
Edy Carlos highly praised the commitment of the players and also of the reinforcements who are already integrated into the squad.
– The dedication and willingness with which they carry out the tasks is incredible. The new athletes arrived with a lot of enthusiasm, with a lot of desire to be able to do their best. This has been very important for us to form an increasingly stronger group and achieve great achievements this year – he concluded.

O Botafogo defeated the Francana (SP) 1-0 this Monday (8/1), at the Lanchão Stadium, in Franca, and advanced to the second phase of the São Paulo Cup with 100% success, leading Group 5. The goal was scored by Kayke, taking a penalty.
Glorioso now waits for second place in Group 6, which will only be defined this Tuesday. Chapecoense (4 points), Novorizontino (4) and Jacuipense (3) are the teams that could cross Alvinegro’s path, still on a date to be confirmed by the FPF.
The game
Needing to win by two goals and pushed by the local fans, Francana started putting pressure on Botafogo. Just a minute into the game, Higor shot dangerously and, two minutes later, black and white goalkeeper Heitor had to work, making a great save from Luquinha’s low shot.
Botafogo had the first chance in the eighth minute, when João Guilherme put the ball in and Kayke shot over the goalkeeper. Francana got scared again in the 12th minute, with a strong left leg finish from Diego. The match was far from easy for Fogão.
However, Botafogo managed to open the scoring soon after. At 16 minutes, Kayke entered the area and was pulled by Pedro Henrique. The same Kayke took the low penalty and made it 1-0. Only after the goal did Glorioso actually manage to control the match.
In the second half, Botafogo showed much more organization than their opponent and continued to control the game, without conceding. In the 24th minute, Vargas, who had just entered, had the chance to increase, but Michel saved it. Close to stoppage time, Rhuan wasted another chance, and Fogão ended up winning even with the minimum count.
Botafogo’s next game
Classified as leader of Group 5, Botafogo now waits for second place in Group 6, which will only be defined this Tuesday. Chapecoense (4 points), Novorizontino (4) and Jacuipense (3) are the teams that could cross Glorioso’s path, on a date yet to be confirmed by the FPF.
