Flamengo is evaluating the signing of Botafogo's 24-year-old midfielder Danilo, with interest in its initial phase according to information first reported by Raisa Simplício and confirmed by ESPN. The club is seeking a midfielder for multiple roles but has not yet presented an official offer to Botafogo or the player's representatives. A potential negotiation could be facilitated by Botafogo's financial problems, as executive Alessandro Brito admitted to Ge that the club needs to sell players.
