The left back was announced last Tuesday as a player for Alvinegro (3), and appeared in a message with the gold and diamond accessory
Left back Alex Telles was Botafogo’s latest signing in the second transfer window of the season. In his first appearance as a reinforcement for Glorioso and sending a message to the fans, the player attracted attention for his luxurious style. After all, he was wearing an accessory worth more than R$ 220,000.
“I’m another chosen one. I close with Glorioso. Let’s build great things together. A hug to the Juventus fans and to John (Textor) for the trust. ‘Let’s go!'”, Alex said via Instagram.
This is a “Vintage Alhambra, 10 motifs” necklace made of 18-karat gold, diamonds and ten malachite stones. The jewelry is produced by the French brand Van Cleef & Arpels. The accessory, in fact, is made of two colors with five stones each, which alternate. The cable is 42 cm long and is on sale for R$226,000.
I arrive in Botafogo surrounded by great expectations
The player’s much-hyped arrival at Botafogo became possible after the termination of his contract with Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nassr. Especially after the club reached the limit of foreigners set by the Middle Eastern country’s federation. Telles had a short spell, with just 44 games, three goals and six assists.
In fact, during his time playing for the team, he was led by an old acquaintance of Alvinegro and its fans, coach Luís Castro. The Portuguese professional was a protagonist in the Brazilian team in 2023. This is because he led Glorioso to lead the previous edition of the Brazilian Championship for much of the first round. He then left Botafogo after receiving a financially irrefutable offer from Al-Nassr.
The purchase of Telles was fundamental, especially after the absence of Cuiabano, who suffered a muscle injury to his right thigh and will be out for at least a month due to the problem.
Telles has played for major European clubs such as Inter, Manchester United and Porto. He was also on the list of the Brazilian team called up to play in the last edition of the World Cup, in Qatar, in 2022.
