Botafogo agrees on the value for the release of Artur Jorge


The Portuguese coach will be released for 2 million euros and will arrive at Botafogo next week




Botafogo and Braga (POR) have defined that the Rio club will have to pay 2 million euros (around R$ 11 million) to obtain the early release of Portuguese coach Artur Jorge. After all, he had a contract with the European team until mid-2025.

In this way Glorioso was able to negotiate to pay less of the dismissal fine. This, in turn, amounted to 10 million euros (about R$55 million at current prices). The information was initially published by the newspaper “O Globo”. It is worth highlighting that Artur Jorge’s desire to settle with Botafogo contributed to the Portuguese’s liberation.

Also according to the Rio newspaper, Artur Jorge and Botafogo have already signed a contract. The thing is, I already agree. The Portuguese coach is also expected to arrive in Rio de Janeiro next Tuesday (02). You will thus follow Glorioso’s match against Junior Barranquilla, in the first round of the Libertadores group stage, at the Nilton Santos, at 7pm.

Artur Jorge has spent virtually his entire career at Braga, with spells in the youth and professional teams. In this 2023/2024 season he led the club to the Portuguese League Cup title. Textor went to Portugal on Monday, where he met Artur Jorge and convinced him of the project. The commander is 52 years old.
