São Paulo FC tries to sign Newton after Rui Costa's departure. The Tricolor will suggest a financial engineering to unlock the negotiations with Botafogo.
What happened?
Rui Costa was fired and Rafinha was promoted as the new football chief of São Paulo FC.
Why is this important for São Paulo FC?
Newton was a express request from coach Dorival Júnior, who wants a tall player with great marking ability.
What comes next?
São Paulo FC will present an offer to Botafogo to sign Newton, with a financial engineering that includes the transfer of defender Ferraresi.
| Player | Club | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Newton | Botafogo | 5 million euros |
| Ferraresi | São Paulo FC | 6 million euros |
São Paulo FC offered 3 million euros for Newton, but Botafogo insisted on a purchase clause fixed at 5 million euros.
What is São Paulo FC's strategy?
The Tricolor plans to suggest a financial engineering that includes the transfer of Ferraresi to Botafogo, and the remaining 'credit' value would be used to reduce the value of Artur.
São Paulo FC does not want to lose the deal for two reasons: Newton was a express request from Dorival Júnior and the player signaled positive for a transfer to Morumbi.
