Tashkent’s Bunyodkor continue to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season. This time, the “Swallows” have brought in a goalkeeper from Italy — Federico Botti has officially become a member of the team. The club’s press service reported.
In the club’s statement, special emphasis was placed on the new signing:
— Federico Botti is our “Swallow”. During the training camp in Antalya, a foreign player joined our squad. Italian Federico Botti will defend Bunyodkor’s colors in the 2026 season. We hope Federico will guard our goal reliably and make a major contribution to the team’s victories, the statement said.
In short, Bunyodkor’s camp in Antalya is not “just training” — it’s turning into a venue for real squad upgrades. The arrival of the Italian keeper could raise competition and bring more calm to the back line.
Recall that earlier the club also announced another transfer — it was reported that Shahboz Umarov joined the “Swallows.”
