Philipe Sampaio, a 30-year-old player from Botafogo, was also considered by Radomiak Radom. However, they opted for a player familiar with Poland and determined to showcase his best form. Radomiak Radom was looking to strengthen their defense due to the departure of Raphael Rossi and the unexpected end of their collaboration with Shaocong Wu. Despite Sampaio being a candidate, the club decided that choosing someone with experience in Poland would be more beneficial.
