Matheus Martins to Dynamo Moscow: Botafogo accept €7m, but agreement still pending
Botafogo have accepted a €7 million offer from Dynamo Moscow for Matheus Martins. However, the transfer still depends on an agreement between the Russian club and the forward’s representatives.
Botafogo accept offer for Matheus Martins
Matheus Martins’ move to Dynamo Moscow has progressed on Botafogo’s side. The Rio de Janeiro club have accepted the €7 million offer made by the Russians for the forward. As a result, the matter between the two clubs is no longer the main obstacle to a potential transfer. Botafogo’s acceptance gives Dynamo Moscow a basis on which to try to complete the deal, but the sale has not yet been finalised.
Dynamo Moscow still negotiating with representatives
The outstanding issue is an agreement between Dynamo Moscow and Matheus Martins’ representatives. Without that understanding, the transfer cannot be completed, even though Botafogo have accepted the offer. The negotiations now depend on discussions over the terms involving the forward. Until an agreement is reached at this stage, Matheus Martins remains contracted to Botafogo and cannot be considered a confirmed Dynamo Moscow signing.
What is the current state of the transfer?
The deal is progressing but remains incomplete. Botafogo have given the green light to the €7 million offer, while Dynamo Moscow are working to reach an agreement with the player’s representatives. The distinction is important: accepting the offer resolves the discussions between the clubs, but does not replace the agreement required with the player’s representatives. The outcome depends directly on this second set of negotiations.
What is needed for Matheus Martins to join Dynamo Moscow?
For Matheus Martins to move to Dynamo Moscow, the Russian club must reach an agreement with his representatives. The deal can then move towards completion. For now, there has been no signing announcement or confirmation of his departure from Botafogo. The concrete point in the negotiations is the €7 million offer accepted by the Brazilian club. Everything else remains conditional on the agreement that is still pending.
