Just a week after helping Botafogo win their first-ever Copa Libertadores, Thiago Almada secured the 2024 Brasileirão by defeating São Paulo 2-1 at home on the final matchday. This victory gave the club its third Brazilian League title in history, adding to their wins in 1968 and 1995.
The 23-year-old Argentine midfielder played a key role for the Brazilian team this season and added another major trophy to his collection:
2022 World Cup
2024 Copa Libertadores
2024 Brasileirão
With his stellar performances this year, Almada strengthens his chances of earning a bigger role in Lionel Scaloni’s Argentina squad in 2025.
So far LCM hierarchy looks like this: Mac Allister – Lo Celso – Almada.
RCM De Paul-Palacios-Nico Paz/Buonanotte?
DM Enzo/Macallister-Paredes-(Guido) or hopefully a new player (Nico Dominguez/Alan Varela/Equi Fernandez/Barrenechea/Perrone)
