A return to England is a possibility for the 36-year-old goalkeeper Neto, with West Ham, a club in the second division, being one of the scenarios under discussion. Neto is aware he is not part of Botafogo's plans, and the club's board has indicated to his staff that an amicable termination is possible if proposals are made. In addition to West Ham, inquiries have come from clubs in Italy, Qatar, and China, but any departure is dependent on the approval of the new SAF investor.
