Botafogo eye move for ex-Flamengo defender Pablo Marí | OneFootball

Pablo Marí has a contract with Fiorentina (ITA) until June next year

Botafogo remains attentive to the market, eyeing options to complete the squad for the remainder of the current season. One of the names being monitored by the General Severiano team is defender Pablo Marí, ex-Flamengo, but the negotiation would be difficult to finalize.

This is because Pablo Marí is not interested in leaving Fiorentina (ITA) at this point in his career and has a contract with the Italian club until June next year. In addition to Botafogo, Olympiacos (GRE), Rodinei's team, also wants to count on the defender. It's worth mentioning that the Italian team does not rule out a transfer. The information is from journalist Jorge Nicola.

WHAT IS PABLO MARÍ'S SITUATION?

Pablo Marí arrived at Fiorentina last season, coming from Monza (ITA). During this period, the ex-Flamengo defender played 13 games, without scoring goals or providing assists to his teammates. The Spanish defender also participated in two preseason friendlies against Leicester (ING) and Manchester United (ING).

HOW WAS PABLO MARÍ AT FLAMENGO?

Flamengo hired Pablo Marí in 2019, when he was at Manchester City (ING). The Spanish defender arrived under suspicion from the red-black fans, but soon became a key player in the campaign that earned the titles of the Copa Libertadores and the Brazilian Championship. He played 30 games, with three goals and one assist.

AND FLAMENGO?

Thus, ex-team of Pablo Marí, Flamengo remains focused on the upcoming commitments of the season. This is because the red-black team takes to the field this Wednesday (20), at 21:30 (Brasília time), against Internacional, at the Beira-Rio Stadium, in Porto Alegre, in a match valid for the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores.
