Atletico Madrid is preparing a €10 million offer to acquire the 26-year-old footballer Vitinho. According to a report from journalist Ekrem Konur on his social media page X, selling Vitinho to Atletico is considered the most preferable option in Brazil. Konur had previously written that Botafogo values the right-back at €15 million.

According to reports from Brazil, Atlético de Madrid is in a favorable position to sign Botafogo's Vitinho. Botafogo is aware that Atlético is monitoring the player, although an official proposal has not yet been made. In Brazil, Atlético Madrid is considered a more interesting option for Vitinho. He is regarded as a strong market opportunity due to his youth and potential, despite being under contract until 2029.

Brazilian right-back Vitinho has attracted interest from European clubs, including Atlético Madrid and Everton, though no formal offers have been submitted. Botafogo's coach has asked the board for the player to stay, and the club will only open negotiations for a fee of around 15 million euros. The two-cap Brazil international joined Botafogo in August 2024 and his contract runs until the end of 2029.
