Also according to the journalist, the Fogão star will travel in the next few days to introduce himself to his new club. In recent months, Textor said that the decision on whether Luiz Henrique would remain would be up to the player himself. “He has a choice, right? What we do at Eagle is bring players, ask them to win championships and then we honor their path. It’s his decision,” said the Botafogo owner.
Luiz Henrique arrived at Botafogo at the beginning of this year and won the Libertadores and Brasileirão titles. He scored 12 goals in 55 games with the black and white shirt. According to the ge portal, Botafogo’s board of directors did not confirm the athlete’s transfer, but Luiz Henrique’s decision has been made. After the defeat to Pachuca, on the 11th, in the Intercontinental Cup, in Doha, the player traveled to Lyon and visited the new club’s facilities.
