Repatriated after almost 10 months, the Minister of Defense is ready to rewrite his history in Mais Tradicional. The saga begins this Saturday?
Has Adryelson’s time finally come? Of the reinforcements announced by Botafogo in 2024, the Minister of Defense was the last in line and has not yet entered the field in the black and white jersey. This Saturday (21), however, the defender could seize his first opportunity since returning to Mais Tradicional. In order to preserve some players due to physical problems and wear in the Libertadores, Artur Jorge suggests some changes in view of the classic against Fluminense, at the Maracanã, at 18:30, in the 27th day of the Brazilian Championship. In this context, the name of the sheriff gains strength to appear among the 11 starters of the Braga coach.
With the Bastos/Barboza duo on the rise, Adryelson had to wait and take over the Bianconeri squad as an immediate reserve, replacing Halter. However, the technical committee understands that the minister needs the pace of the game to be as fast as possible. After all, the player has recently returned from vacation, with very few games for Lyon (FRA): four in 2023/2024 and only one participation in the current European season. Bastos, the older one, would theoretically be the defender spared from starting.
“Let’s stick to this mission,” says Botafogo defender
If in 2023 Adryelson had the unanimous right to be called up to the Brazilian national team, now, in a short time, he will have to rewrite history, overcoming the loss of the title and the trauma of the final stretch of the Brasileirão. And everyone, for now, in the role of “player to compose”. In December, at the end of his loan at Botafogo, he will return to Lyon. Who knows, this time, with at least a cup in his bag? The road to success has already been traced. Glorioso is the isolated leader and could reach the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores.
“I arrive happy and very motivated. I know we have a big challenge ahead. Adryelson now has a much stronger mentality than before. I have worked hard. We know what happened last year. I am at the coach’s disposal for whatever happens. , in addition to strengthening the group, we remain firm in this mission”, stressed the Minister of Defense.
Before Adryelson, in the last international transfer window, Artur Jorge chose the full-backs Vitinho (right) and Alex Telles (left). These are the latest purchases of Alvinegro, who in the middle of the year signed eight new faces, including the Argentine midfielder Almada, the most expensive purchase in the history of Brazilian football. The midfielder El Arouch, in turn, has already left the club.
