Brazilian midfielder to leave Hoffenheim

The 23-year-old joined the German side from Botafogo last summer, but has failed to make an impact at Hoffenheim so far.

Lancenet claims Botafogo are closely monitoring Maicosuel’s situation at Hoffenheim.

“Botafogo president Mauricio Assumpcao has noticed that Maicosuel is not a regular in Hoffenheim’s starting XI. He hopes that Maicosuel returns to Botafogo in case he doesn’t make it in Germany,” said Maicosuel’s agent, Roberto Le.
