Damian Bobadilla, a 24-year-old Paraguayan international midfielder for São Paulo, reportedly received a proposal from an Italian club six months ago. Bruno Pont does not rule out that the club could revisit this in the summer. Como, Celtic, Real Betis, and Brighton & Hove Albion have also been linked with the player, whose contract runs until the end of 2027. This season in the Campeonato Paulista, Bobadilla has scored 2 goals and provided 1 assist in 9 appearances. According to reports in March 2026, São Paulo's asking price for the player is approximately €12 million. His current market value on Transfermarkt is €4.00m.
