The Controversies Surrounding John Textor and the Botafogo Transfers

John Textor, the owner of the SAF (Sociedade Anônima do Futebol) at Botafogo, has recently found himself in the spotlight again due to another controversy. His attempts to circumvent a transfer ban at Olympique Lyonnais, a French club where he holds stakes, have raised eyebrows and questions within the football community. Textor is accused of trying to move players from Botafogo to Lyon, claiming that the transfers were arranged before the ban was imposed. Among the players in question are Luiz Henrique and Igor Jesus.
