Revealed by Internacional, Otávio entered the sights of Italian giants Juventus, and at the same time opened negotiations to renew with the Portuguese team.
Otávio has been a revelation in Portugal this year, and following the interest from Juventus, FC Porto have already begun negotiations to buy the remaining 32.5% of economic rights of the player, in a deal that may cost up to €5 million. The new contract would be until 2021 and Otávio’s wages would be doubled. The current contract was signed in 2014 with a validity of five years. The interest of Juventus became a topic in Italy after the good performances of Otávio in the UEFA Champions League. The idea being worked in Turin is about seeking a deal to have the Brazilian in December, in the middle of the European season. In the eyes of Internacional, the best outcome would be the transfer of Otávio. He played at Internacional between 2009 and 2014, and FIFA’s solidarity mechanism provides payment to the club where the player spent up to 21 years. The unofficial calculation indicates that the Brazilian club can earn up to €1.3 million from the transfer of Otávio. This would be the scene if Juventus end paying the reported fee of €35 million.
