São Paulo open talks with Botafogo over Ferraresi loan | OneFootball

São Paulo began discussions with Botafogo on Wednesday for the loan of defender Ferraresi. According to Gazeta Esportiva, the 27-year-old player's contract would be valid until the end of this season.

In 2026, Ferraresi played only five matches for the Tricolor Paulista, three in the Campeonato Paulista and two in the Brasileirão. Out of these appearances, only two were as a starter.

With the consolidation of São Paulo's defense with Alan Franco and Sabino, who have been Hernán Crespo's choices in recent games, Ferraresi lost his spot among the starting eleven.

Even with Alan Franco's suspension in the semifinal against Palmeiras after being sent off against Red Bull Bragantino, the Argentine coach opted for Arboleda as a substitute. Ferraresi did not even take the field.

São Paulo in the season

In the Campeonato Paulista, São Paulo had a turbulent start and flirted with relegation but managed to recover and stayed alive until the semifinal, where they were eliminated by Palmeiras.

In the Brasileirão, the Tricolor Paulista is in second place on the table, with ten points from three wins and one draw. The score is the same as the leader Palmeiras.
