RIO DE JANEIRO, Dec. 29 (Xinhua) -- Paraguay international midfielder Oscar Romero has parted ways with Botafogo, less than a month after the club secured the Copa Libertadores and Brazilian Serie A titles.

The 32-year-old made 27 appearances for the Rio de Janeiro club, scoring one goal and providing five assists, after his arrival on a season-long contract in March.

"Oscar Romero wore our colors with determination and says goodbye with the Brazilian and Libertadores titles," read a statement on Botafogo's official website.

"Classic in his style of commanding the midfield, the Paraguayan was decisive at important moments of the season and left his mark on both triumphs. Thank you and good luck on your journey, Oscar."

According to media reports, Paraguayan clubs Cerro Porteno, Olimpia and Libertad have shown interest in signing the playmaker. ■
