Cláudio Braga

During the summer 2026 window, reports consistently cited Hearts' asking price at £8-10 million (approx. €9.5-12 million), with an analytics firm also valuing the player in that range in July 2026. A specific offer from Ipswich Town was reported in July 2026 at €11 million (£9.5 million). Lyon was reportedly quoted over €10 million in July 2026. Earlier valuations from March 2026 were lower, around £4-5 million (approx. €4.7-5.9 million), and a reported approach of around £5 million was rejected in January 2026. His Transfermarkt value was noted at €6-7 million during 2026. The player's transfer from Aalesund to Hearts in July 2025 was completed for a reported €520,000.

Our valuation is driven by Hearts' consistent asking price of £8-10 million (approx. €9.5-12 million) throughout the summer 2026 transfer window, a figure corroborated by an analytics firm's valuation. The high end of the range for Cláudio Rafael Soares Braga is supported by a widely reported club-record offer of €11 million from Ipswich Town. The rejection of a lower bid (~€5.9 million) in January 2026 further solidifies the club's high valuation.
