According to Globo, Atalanta is interested in Danilo and Botafogo is prepared to sell him for €30 million. Botafogo had previously intended to sell Danilo for approximately €40 million after the 2026 World Cup, but is now prepared to reduce the price because he played only 43 minutes at the tournament. Botafogo's priority is to sell the 25-year-old midfielder to a European club, while the player's entourage suggests a transfer within Brazil is more probable.
