Botafogo’s next challenge will be against Athletico, next Sunday (29), at 6:30 pm, at Arena da Baixada.
"Rodrigo Bellão, coach of the U-20 team, will take over the squad on an interim basis," says the club’s statement.
Botafogo announces that the Argentine MartÃn Anselmi is no longer the head coach of the main team. The decision was communicated to the professional on the morning of this Sunday (22).
Although we have great appreciation for Anselmi and his coaching staff, as well as much respect for his dedication and work ethic, we have not seen the evolution, progress, and results we expect from a championship club, and we believe that a change is necessary to achieve our goals this season and beyond. Thus, the Club will follow a different path in its sports project.
John Textor and the Football Department are in the market looking for a new coach for the challenges of the 2026 season.
Rodrigo Bellão, coach of the U-20 team, will take over the squad on an interim basis. The black-and-white squad will return to training next Tuesday (24), at Botafogo’s training center.
Botafogo thanks Anselmi and his assistants for their services and wishes them success in their next challenges.
