Live updates on transfer rumours.
TransferFeed valuation based on market analysis.
In May 2026, reports indicated a transfer was agreed between Botafogo and Palmeiras for a fee cited as either R$18 million (approx. €3.3 million) in court documents, or more widely as US$4 million (approx. €3.7 million) or R$20 million (approx. €3.6 million). It was also reported that Cruzeiro made a higher, but unspecified, offer for the player around the same time. His Transfermarkt market value was listed as €5.00m in March and April 2026.
Our valuation for Alexander Barboza is driven by the highly detailed and consistent reports from April-May 2026 of his completed transfer from Botafogo to Palmeiras. The fee was widely reported as US$4 million or between R$18-20 million, which translates to a narrow range of approximately €3.3 to €3.8 million. This fee reflects his market value while also accounting for his contract expiring in December 2026.
