Luiz Henrique

In June 2026, reports indicated Napoli considered Zenit's demand of nearly €40 million to be excessive, while Transfermarkt's value was cited at €24 million. Throughout early 2026, Zenit's asking price was consistently reported in the €40-50 million range, with some reports mentioning an ideal of €50 million but a willingness to negotiate around €40 million plus bonuses. An aspirational price of €70 million was also mentioned, contingent on World Cup performance. In February 2026, a potential bid from Palmeiras of approximately €33 million was reportedly considered insufficient by Zenit. The player's most recent completed transfer was from Botafogo to Zenit in January 2025 for a reported €33 million.

Our valuation for Luiz Henrique is driven by Zenit's consistent and widely reported asking price of €40-50 million. This represents a significant but logical markup from the €33 million fee they paid in January 2025. While interested clubs like Napoli and Flamengo reportedly find this price high, the firmness of Zenit's stance and the player's status as a Brazilian international support a valuation at the lower end of this range.
