⚡ In 30 seconds
  • Botafogo has reaffirmed its support for head coach Tite.
  • The team has recorded only one victory in their last six matches.
  • The club is currently managing a total SAF liability of R$ 2.5 billion.

Botafogo has expressed continued confidence in Tite's leadership during a challenging phase of the 2026 season. The club aims to shield the manager as the Brasileirão enters its final stretch, despite a recent run of poor results that has seen the team secure just one win in six outings.

According to ge, the organization believes that assigning blame is not appropriate at this time, viewing the current slump as the consequence of a crisis that originated in 2025.

The club is also navigating significant financial hurdles, with the total liabilities of the Botafogo SAF reaching R$ 2.5 billion. Amid these pressures, player Tiquinho criticized the leaking of information regarding team bonuses, labeling the situation as unnecessary noise over a minor matter.
