Walace

In July 2024, the player completed a transfer from Udinese to Cruzeiro for a reported fee of €8.0M. However, later reports in September 2025 and April 2026 cited that same transfer fee as approximately €6.0M or R$36 million (approx. €6.2M). Across multiple reports from September 2025 to February 2026, his market value according to Transfermarkt was consistently listed at €4.5M.

Our valuation for Walace Souza Silva is anchored by his €8.0M transfer to Cruzeiro in 2024, but is significantly discounted due to his current situation. Reports of disciplinary issues, being separated from the squad, and the club's explicit desire to facilitate a transfer, even by covering salary, create a weak negotiating position. The consistent Transfermarkt valuation of €4.5M provides a ceiling, but we believe the actual fee will be lower given the circumstances.
