Invited by FC Dynamo Moscow and PFC CSKA Moscow, Botafogo is confirmed for the 2026 edition of the Brothers Cup, an international mid-season tournament to be held in Russia.

Botafogo begins its mid-season break on June 22 with the squad’s return to training at the CT and departs for Russia on June 30. The black-and-white side will make its tournament debut on July 4 against CSKA Moscow at VEB Arena. The team then returns to the pitch on July 10 to face Dynamo Moscow at VTB Arena. The delegation returns to Rio on July 12 to complete its preparations for the remainder of the season.

Botafogo’s presence marks a historic moment for the competition: the Glorioso will be the first South American club to compete in the Brothers Cup, a tournament organized by the Russian clubs that is now in its fourth edition and firmly established as one of the country’s leading summer competitions.

The black-and-white club’s participation is part of the SAF’s sporting plan for the rest of the season, giving the team the opportunity to play high-level international matches, further prepare the squad, and strengthen the Botafogo brand’s presence on the global stage.

In addition to its on-field commitments, the trip to Russia also represents an opportunity for institutional exchange and closer ties with the club’s international fans and partners.

More information on official match times, broadcast details, and ticket sales will be announced soon.
