Before being halted by a court injunction from the Rio de Janeiro Justice this Thursday (29), John Textor was conducting advanced negotiations to sell two key players from Botafogo to Nottingham Forest, England.

However, since Botafogo owes 20 million euros to Forest for the purchase of Danilo himself in 2025, the real profit from the transaction would be only 14 million euros – approximately R$ 86.8 million. The deal was racing against time, as the transfer window in England closes next Monday (2).
