There was a possible negotiation with Brighton for Cuiabano, with a preference for the end of the year. The negotiation was around 10 million euros. However, the transfer to Nottingham Forest was finalized instead.

Brighton, a club in the English Premier League, has expressed interest in Cuiabano and reached out to Botafogo. Nevertheless, the transfer negotiations have not progressed. Although Brighton has initiated contact, they have not moved forward in their talks with Botafogo concerning the transfer. Earlier, Botafogo turned down offers from other clubs that were structured as 5 million Euro plus 3 million Euro, and 6 million Euro plus 2 million Euro. As Brighton enters the competition, they face rivalry from Fenerbahçe, who continues to be determined in their efforts to acquire the Brazilian left-back. Fenerbahçe, after their previous unsuccessful attempts to sign Cuiabano, is now contemplating increasing their bid to surpass Brighton's interest.
