Botafogo continues to develop the plans of the SAF, giving a new philosophy to the club. Debt payment, championship dispute, development of the base and mainly a complete restructuring of what is the new Botafogo Football and Regatas. And one of the targets in this process is the attacker Matheus Nascimento.
Technician Tiago Nunes recently stated that he intends to count on the attacker still this season. And that realizes a need to adapt the athlete differently, since the past years of poor management, also harmed the development of a player considered as a jewel, including in the basic categories of the Brazilian team.
In addition to emphasizing the athlete's technique and potential, Tiago brought the vision much spoken of by the SAF, aimed at preparing young players so that they can act well on the team and in the future enter the market as good sales to the club.
" A 16-year-old boy who can't keep playing games stays in a limbo, doesn't have enough games to develop, this generates a huge expectation when he goes to the professional, arouses interest from the entire planet. It was getting in the middle of the process. Nor was it able to achieve ownership, the sequence in Botafogo, because it is natural that young people need to have maturity and games in their category in this transition process to gradually gain space, nor did they jump to be sold to another project".
Currently the team continues with the reserve dispute between Janderson and Matheus Nascimento. In the 2×0 victory against Bangu in the last match, both played prominently Matheus' entry in the second half. Tiquinho Soares continues as the absolute holder of the position, but the technical committee has suggested that he will actually use Carioca as a laboratory for this season.
