Jeffinho, who was permanently signed by Botafogo at the beginning of the season, was one of the highlights of the Rio team in October. In the five matches played that month, the number 47 scored in two and provided two assists in another.

According to Sofascore data, in the last five matches, Jeffinho won 24 duels, completed eight dribbles, and needed 74 minutes to participate in a goal. Additionally, he scored in the 2-1 victory against Bahia and in the 2-0 win against Ceará. In the 2-2 draw against Santos, he assisted Joaquín Correa twice.

Praise from Davide Ancelotti

After the match against Peixe, coach Davide Ancelotti praised the forward: “Jeffinho is a player who clearly has the coach's confidence. A dangerous and disruptive player that this team needs. A one-on-one player, with the final pass. It's something we don't always have in this team. That's why he is such an important player for me,” he stated.
