The owner of the Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas SAF, John Textor, gave a press conference after the elimination to Vasco in the Copa do Brasil.

What happened?

John Textor regretted the result and took the opportunity to explain the scenario of the conflict with Eagle Football. The American businessman guaranteed that the war between the parties has come to an end.

Why does this matter for Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas?

The fight is over, and that's why we're alive, let's move forward. Eagle is the 90% shareholder of this club, not the social club. Eagle is the owner.

What's next?

John Textor did not mention any support from Marinakis for a new network of clubs, nor even financial support to repurchase Botafogo. According to the American, the relationship will continue to bear fruit. | Date | Event | Result | | --- | --- | --- | | 05/11 | Copa do Brasil | Elimination to Vasco | Botafogo, now, prepares with an eye on the only competition that remains: the Brasileirão.
