Crystal Palace are interested in Hearts' Portuguese forward Claudio Braga following his impressive performances. The 26-year-old has also attracted interest from Brighton, and Celtic are also considering a move for him this summer. Braga has scored 12 goals and provided three assists in 29 top-flight appearances. It is understood that Hearts might be willing to sell the player for a fee of approximately £5m, with a preference for a sale abroad if they cannot keep him. The forward joined Hearts in July 2025 from Aalesund for a fee of €520,000, and his contract is valid until May 2028. His current market value is €6.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
