Fabrizio Romano: strong European interest in former Benfica player | OneFootball

Fabrizio Romano reveals that José Boto is at the center of attention. Through his social media, the well-known journalist and market movement specialist revealed that the former member of Benfica is being followed by several clubs, due to the success he has achieved at Flamengo.

In his post, shared on the social network X (formerly Twitter), the Italian explains that there are several European football clubs longing for José Boto, unable to remain indifferent to the work the Portuguese has been doing in Rio de Janeiro, both in sports and in the structure of the Mengão.

In the post, Fabrizio Romano also explains that those interested have been closely monitoring the work of Flamengo's director, who has been a success since arriving in Brazil about a year ago, after serving as a member of Benfica's scouting team.

However, what has drawn the most attention, besides the titles — with the Rio club lifting four trophies in recent weeks — has been his approach to the market. Spending only 48 million euros, Boto secured the signings of names like Saúl, Danilo, Jorginho, Samuel Lino — who is on Benfica's radar —, Carrascal, and many others.

These moves allowed Flamengo to win the Libertadores Cup once again. “What brought Flamengo here? A lot of work, sacrifice and, on Wednesday, we will have another chance to win the title,” said José Boto, after Mengão defeated Palmeiras in the final of the competition.
