Bruno Samudio was once again left out of a Botafogo U17 match. The goalkeeper was not included in the classic against Flamengo and completed his second consecutive game away from the team. The measure would be linked to an internal disciplinary issue.

The information was initially released by journalist Wellington Arruda. So far, Botafogo has not publicly explained which episode led to the punishment nor stated how long the player will remain out of matches.

The absence draws attention because Bruno, 16 years old, is treated as one of the prominent names in the club's youth categories. In February this year, the goalkeeper signed his first professional contract with Botafogo. He arrived at Alvinegro in 2024 and also spent time in the Brazilian team's youth categories.

On the field, the young man's performance had fueled expectations about his evolution at the club and a future transition to the main squad. The CBF registers Bruno among Botafogo athletes in the 2026 U17 competitions.

The current episode is not the first report of a disciplinary problem involving the goalkeeper during his training. Before arriving at Botafogo, Bruno played for Athletico-PR and left the Paraná club in 2024 after reports of indiscipline.

Despite the new separation, there is no official information that Botafogo intends to break the relationship with the player. The club also did not disclose details about possible follow-up measures or when Bruno could be included again for matches in the category.
