Kaio Jorge

In January 2026, reports indicated Cruzeiro's owner set a firm €50 million asking price amid strong interest from Flamengo. Flamengo reportedly submitted multiple rejected bids, including a €30 million cash offer and a package valued at €32 million. In December 2025, a reported €25 million loan-to-buy offer from West Ham was also rejected, and Zenit was reportedly willing to pay €30 million, a move the player himself declined. This follows his completed transfer from Juventus to Cruzeiro in July 2024 for a reported €7.2 million. His Transfermarkt value was listed at €22 million in December 2025.

Our valuation for Kaio Jorge is driven by Cruzeiro's very firm and publicly stated €50 million asking price. This stance is supported by their rejection of multiple significant offers in late 2025 and early 2026, including a package from Flamengo valued at €32 million and a €25 million bid from West Ham. The player's recent contract extension to 2030 and his key role at the club provide Cruzeiro with maximum negotiating leverage, making a sale below €40 million highly improbable.
