In June 2026, reports mentioned a loan proposal from Botafogo to São Paulo that included a €5 million purchase option. In May 2026, Botafogo reportedly set an asking price of €5 million for 100% of the player's rights. In March 2026, negotiations with Santos reportedly involved a €3 million valuation via debt cancellation, which Botafogo rejected, while other reports from the same period mentioned a potential sale of 70% of his rights for a fee between €3 million and €3.5 million. His Transfermarkt value is consistently cited at €3 million. The player's last transfer with a reported fee was in January 2024 from Jacuipense to Botafogo for €190K.

Our valuation for Newton Araújo da Costa Júnior is driven by multiple consistent reports from 2026. Botafogo has reportedly set an asking price of €5 million and discussed a purchase option at the same value with São Paulo. This is contrasted with a rejected €3 million valuation from Santos. The most likely transfer value reflects a compromise between the firm asking price and the lower bids.
