Arthur Cabral could turn a profit! Former Benfica man close to move | OneFootball

Botafogo and Corinthians are negotiating the transfer of Arthur Cabral, with Benfica closely following the talks, as the Lisbon club will be entitled to 10% of any capital gain on the €12 million for which they sold the player to Botafogo a year ago.

The two clubs are negotiating a loan deal, which for now will not represent any new financial return for the Portuguese side, but the move will include a purchase option.

Talks are ongoing, but there is still no white smoke, as the current disagreement concerns the payment of the striker’s salary during the loan spell. The centre-forward cost the Eagles €20.5 million.

It is worth noting that this is not the first time Arthur Cabral’s name has been linked with a possible exit from the Rio de Janeiro club. Before Corinthians, and at a time when the player was valued more highly, Botafogo turned down a €9 million offer from Torino during the winter transfer window.

This season, wearing the Botafogo shirt, Arthur Cabral — valued at €8 million — has made a total of 12 official appearances for the Rio club: four in the Brasileirão, three in the Copa Libertadores and five in the Campeonato Carioca. In the 723 minutes he has spent on the pitch, the “Canarinho” has recorded one goal and two assists.
