According to Globo Esporte Futebol, Botafogo had Alex Arce, from Independiente Rivadavia, as an option for replacement. However, the Argentine club does not want to negotiate Arce until the end of the year. Arce is the top scorer of the Libertadores 2026, with nine goals until the quarterfinals.
The Brazilian club is now looking for other options to replace Arthur Cabral, with Matheus Gonçalves being the principal target to play on the wing. The transfer window closes on Friday, September 11, leaving Botafogo with limited time to sign a suitable replacement.
