Celta de Vigo have spoken with the representatives of Matheus Martins in recent weeks to understand the conditions of a potential transfer, but no formal offer has yet been made. Celta de Vigo are also closely monitoring the developments of the talks between Botafogo and Coventry City.

According to Ge Globo, Celta Vigo are interested in Matheus Martins. Fogaonet.com reports that other clubs are also interested, including Spanish sides Celta de Vigo and Real Betis. The report from Fogaonet.com concludes that Botafogo are asking for at least €8m for the player.

Globo Esporte reports that Celta de Vigo are among several European clubs tracking Matheus Martins before the summer window. Botafogo are open to selling Matheus Martins for approximately €8m (£6.7m). The Brazilian side are under financial pressure and reportedly see Matheus Martins as one of the assets capable of generating immediate funds. Botafogo still owes Udinese part of the original transfer fee and the case has reached FIFA. According to reports in Brazil, the outstanding debt is estimated at approximately €6m (£5m). That financial pressure appears to be influencing the club’s willingness to negotiate below the original purchase price. Matheus Martins is currently recovering from a muscle injury, but Botafogo expect him to return soon.

Botafogo is experiencing a financial crisis and is open to negotiating the transfer of Brazilian winger Matheus Martins for a financial return. The player and his representatives also view the move favorably. Celta de Vigo, Krasnodar, Feyenoord, and Coventry are among the European clubs interested in the 22-year-old. Botafogo is prepared to sell Martins for 8 million euros. A meeting was held this week to align expectations ahead of the transfer window opening on July 22. The club's need for funds is demonstrated by an outstanding debt of 6 million euros to Udinese for the player's original transfer in July 2024. It was reported that Botafogo paid €10 million for that transfer. Martins, who has been capped by Brazil at the U20 level, has a contract with the club until the end of 2028.
