Who is Lucas Halter?
Lucas Halter began his career at Athletico’s academy, where he turned professional in 2018. He spent four seasons at Furacão, until 2022, when he was hired by Goiás. At the emerald team, he played between 2022 and 2023, when he signed with Botafogo in January this year.
At Glorioso, he was a starter in the first half of the season, but lost space with the growth of the duo Alexander Barboza and Bastos. With the arrival of Adryelson, he became the fourth option for the defense.
His contract with Bota runs until the end of 2027.
Botafogo’s proposal to sign Jair Cunha from Santos FC, according to:
▪️ R$ 10 million + Tiquinho Soares + Danilo Barbosa + Lucas Halter.
