After winning the Taça Rio last Saturday, the defender revealed that negotiations are stalled. Furthermore, he shared what he needs to continue with Glorioso:

“I don't know. Everything is on hold. I have already stated what I need to renew, it's not much. In terms of the contract, everything is agreed, but I need security. That's all,” he said at Arena Alvinegra.

The alvinegros reached a consensus to extend the contract until the end of 2029. However, Alexander Barboza wants to better understand Botafogo's planning before signing the new agreement. In January, the club suffered a transfer ban, and in addition, Eagle Football, John Textor's company, is going through a corporate crisis.
