Jonathan Jesus

In May 2026, reports referenced transfer discussions from late 2025 and early 2026. In December 2025, Zenit reportedly made an offer of approximately €8 million (also cited as R$50 million), which Cruzeiro rejected. Zenit was reportedly willing to increase its offer to €10 million. During that same period, Cruzeiro's asking price was said to be over €10 million (or R$60 million), with one report stating the club valued the player at €15 million. The player's market value according to Transfermarkt was listed as €2.5 million in December 2025, rising to €3 million by May 2026. He previously transferred from Ceará to Cruzeiro in July 2024 for a reported €1.4 million.

Our valuation for Jonathan Jesus is driven by concrete offers and asking prices from the December 2025 / January 2026 period. Reports consistently indicate Cruzeiro rejected an €8 million offer from Zenit and that the Russian club was willing to pay €10 million. Cruzeiro's asking price was reportedly between €10 million and €15 million. Continued interest from other European clubs like Strasbourg and Real Betis supports a valuation in this established range, with our estimate reflecting a likely compromise.
