Part 2/5:
Júnior Santos is expected to join Atlético Mineiro for a sum that rounds off to approximately $8 million when including performance bonuses. Botafogo will receive $7.5 million fixed, in addition to $500,000 in easily achievable bonuses. The payment will be made in three installments, addressing concerns about Botafogo's financial situation. There were discussions about including a promising young player, Alisson, in the deal, but Atlético Mineiro declined. The difference in the players’ ages and potential played a major role in this decision.
