The 44-year-old Brazilian-Spanish attacking midfielder Nenê refused renewal offers from Juventude and agreed to join Botafogo-PB. Juventude, which he joined in April 2023, presented two renewal options to the former number 10. The first involved extending the contract for six months, with the possibility of an additional six-month extension, conditional on physical condition. The second was a one-year contract with a salary reduction. Nenê opted for a new project and accepted the proposal from the Paraíba club. He joins Botafogo-PB with a contract until the end of the year. Botafogo-PB has started announcing the signing in a video posted on their official Instagram. His current Transfermarkt market value is €100k. He has been capped 4 times for the Brazil U23 team, scoring 1 goal.
