The arrival of Davide Ancelotti at the helm of Botafogo is already starting to generate high-profile moves. The Italian coach, who has taken on his first challenge as head coach, has requested the addition of Roberto Firmino as a key piece for his project. The Al Ahly forward is the main target of the Rio de Janeiro board, who hope to convince him to return to Brazil to lead the offensive in the fight for the Copa Libertadores.

Firmino, aged 33, still has a contract with the Saudi club until mid-2026, but the interest from the alvinegro team is strong. His 12 goals and 10 assists in the last season show that he remains a standout player. Botafogo sees him as the ideal replacement for Igor Jesús and believes that his return to South American football will make him the new face of the Brazilian championship.

Davide Ancelotti wants Roberto Firmino

The forward who emerged from Figueirense could rediscover the prominence he had during his time at Liverpool, where he was an idol and a key player in Jürgen Klopp's era, playing a significant role in the UEFA Champions League they won in 2018/19. His profile fits perfectly with the playing style that Ancelotti aims to implement, based on dynamism, collective construction, and offensive pressure.

The Botafogo management, who already surprised with the hiring of the young European strategist, aims to make another big impact with this signing. The club believes that having Firmino on board would not only elevate the sporting level but also enhance the project's media and international impact.

Negotiations are already underway, and excitement in Rio de Janeiro is on the rise. If they manage to close the deal, Firmino would become the flagship of Davide Ancelotti's new Botafogo, which dreams of restoring the club to the highest levels of the continent.
