Eintracht Frankfurt sign Brazilian defender Otávio
Otávio made 22 appearances in the Portuguese top flight last season to help his club avoid relegation, having previously developed at Botafogo in his homeland.
Frankfurt sporting director director Timmo Hardung said: “In Otávio, we’re bringing in a young, highly talented centre-back with enormous potential for development. He’s a left-footer who is tall, athletic and quick, combining those attributes with a strong defensive mentality, which is something we specifically wanted to strengthen in our squad. We’re convinced he’ll bring us a lot of joy here at Eintracht.”
