Martín Anselmi, former FC Porto man, is officially the new Botafogo manager | OneFootball

Anselmi – who was dismissed by the ‘dragons’ after six months in charge to make way for the Italian Francesco Farioli – will take the place of fellow Italian Davide Ancelotti, son of the Brazilian national team coach Carlo Ancelotti, who, due to disagreements with the management, submitted his resignation last week, five months after taking the position.

Martín Anselmi, who will begin pre-season on January 4, was praised by the Rio de Janeiro club for his career, especially for his time at Independiente del Valle in Ecuador, with whom he won the Copa Sudamericana and the Ecuadorian Cup in 2022, and in the following season claimed the South American Supercup and the Ecuadorian Supercup.

In addition to FC Porto and Independiente del Valle, the 40-year-old Argentine coach has also managed Cruz Azul in Mexico and Unión La Calera in Chile.

Davide Ancelotti is yet another coach to leave Botafogo due to disagreements with the club’s owner, American businessman John Textor.
