Is it heating up? Danilo, Palmeiras and Botafogo on timing | OneFootball

Palmeiras has midfielder Danilo as its only target in this transfer window. The player developed in Verdão’s youth academy is a wish of Abel Ferreira, and the club is looking to move forward in talks with Botafogo.

Palmeiras is proceeding cautiously, but...

NOSSO PALESTRA has learned that Alviverde’s football department is seeking to repeat strategies used in other recent negotiations, such as the signings of forwards Vitor Roque and Jhon Arias. The model being used is due to the complexity of the talks, especially because of the high amounts involved.

However, Palmeiras knows it cannot be so passive because of the approaching return of local competitions. Botafogo is aware of the possibility of a sale, but prioritizes Europe and wants to keep Danilo available while a deal is not finalized.

Botafogo is in no rush

The Rio club, aware of Verdão’s strong interest in the midfielder, promises to make talks difficult and is in no rush to move forward with negotiations, since the international transfer window is not yet open.

Botafogo has an indication of an offer from Zenit in the region of €30 million (around R$175 million at the current exchange rate) and will use that as a crucial bargaining factor with Palmeiras so as not to accept an offer for a lower amount.

What about Danilo?

As NP reported, Danilo and his camp believe there will be a clearer direction for his future by the end of next week, whether through a transfer or by staying at the Rio club.
