Striker Everton Cebolinha liked Botafogo's proposal, which offers a two-year contract with a salary around R$ 1.2 million, plus a signing bonus and bonuses of R$ 6 million spread throughout the contract. The value is similar to what the 30-year-old player currently earns at Flamengo.
However, Cebolinha still prioritizes playing outside Brazil and his staff indicated that the trend is that he will not accept the offer from the Rio club if he still has options abroad. The player is free on the market since his contract with Flamengo ended in December, and the red-black club released him without requesting financial compensation.
Cebolinha's preference to remain in Brazil would be Grêmio, a club with which he has a connection. However, the gaucho team does not want to pay the amount required by the striker at this moment, as it reorganizes financially after relegation to Serie B. Santos also inquired about the player's situation and showed interest.
