According to Globo.com, Botafogo has refused a proposal from Palmeiras for Danilo. The Botafogo board's intention is to sell Danilo for a value between 35 and 40 million euros, with a preference for the European market.

ESPN BR reports that Palmeiras made an offer of 28 million euros for Danilo and was awaiting a response from Botafogo. The report also states that Gabriel de Alba, the CEO of GDA Luma, intervened and was inclined to deny the deal even if Palmeiras reached 30 million euros. The internal understanding at Botafogo is that the club is able to refuse the offer for Danilo because of GDA Luma's financial support.

Globo.com reports that a long meeting on Thursday morning between Danilo's staff and Botafogo determined that the player will stay at Botafogo for now. According to ge, people involved in the negotiations stated that Palmeiras was willing to accept a counteroffer of 30 million euros. Botafogo did not indicate acceptance.

Botafogo wants 30 million euros to negotiate for Danilo and has been reluctant to arrange a domestic deal. In recent days, the clubs and the player's representatives have had frequent contact, but there is no definitive indication if the proposal from Palmeiras will be accepted or rejected. Globo.com also reports that Palmeiras had spoken with Botafogo about their interest before the World Cup. According to the same source, Botafogo's initial asking price was around 40 million euros and was lowered to about 30 million euros due to Danilo's limited appearances for the Brazilian national team. Danilo is the only target for Palmeiras in this transfer window.

According to ESPN, Palmeiras does not intend to increase its offer of 28 million euros, approximately R$ 162 million, for Danilo. The same source reports an internal expectation at Palmeiras that the deal will be finalized on Thursday, regardless of the outcome. A source involved in the operation told ESPN that Botafogo knows what offer they have received. During a press conference after the victory over Coritiba, João Martins, an assistant to Abel Ferreira, commented that he likes to work with what they have and described Danilo as a supposition, adding that they know him very well and want the best players to help them.

According to Globo.com, Danilo is on the list of players selected by Botafogo for the match against Vitória. Danilo has played 12 matches in the Brasileirão, the limit for transferring in the national market. Palmeiras increased its offer for Danilo and indicated a financial package of around 28 million euros to Botafogo, including fixed amounts and bonuses, and is awaiting a decision. Botafogo's directors plan to evaluate the proposal in a meeting on Wednesday, before the match against Vitória.

Palmeiras increased its offer to sign Danilo and presented a financial package to Botafogo of approximately 28 million euros, including fixed and variable amounts, as well as bonuses. Journalist André Hernan first reported the new offer amounts. Palmeiras is awaiting a decision from the Rio de Janeiro club. The Botafogo board wants to receive 30 million euros to release Danilo. Before the World Cup, Palmeiras held conversations with Botafogo about their interest in Danilo, indicating substantial values and alternatives to make the transaction possible. During this period, the Palmeiras board maintained constant discussions with Danilo's representatives and Botafogo. In recent days, Palmeiras significantly increased its financial proposal but understands that Botafogo is still reluctant to sell him to another club in Brazil.

ESPN Brasil reports that Palmeiras has not yet made an official offer to Botafogo for Danilo. The salary offered by Palmeiras is less than what Zenit is offering. Danilo's preference is to either continue his career in a top European league or return to Palmeiras. His priority is to return to Europe, but he has not yet received offers that he finds fully satisfying. A decision on his future is expected in the coming days.

According to ESPN BR, negotiations are ongoing for Danilo's potential return to Palmeiras, involving frequent discussions with Botafogo. Although no official written proposal has been made, talks are continuing. Palmeiras has presented figures between 20 and 25 million euros, while Botafogo's desired amount is 30 million euros. Palmeiras is prepared to offer the player a salary of 4 million euros per season on a contract lasting four to five years. Danilo does not wish to leave Botafogo on bad terms and is prepared to stay if required. Manager Abel Ferreira is interested in the player, and Palmeiras is contemplating the inclusion of another player in the transaction. The current week is considered crucial for a resolution, partly because Palmeiras' management is under pressure concerning the potential for a strong offer from another club.

According to Globo.com, Palmeiras made an offer to Botafogo for R$ 120 million, which is about 20.5 million euros, and included Naves, but the defender was transferred to Necaxa, Mexico. Palmeiras plans to submit an updated offer this week and wants to resolve the situation with Danilo quickly so he can be available as soon as possible, though the club understands the difficulty of the deal.

According to Nosso Palestra, Palmeiras has made Danilo a more lucrative salary offer than Zenit, proposing a five-year contract. Nosso Palestra states that the terms, which include bonuses and signing fees, are satisfactory to Danilo and his representatives. While the parties have not yet agreed on all financial details, it is reported that only minimal adjustments are needed before a final agreement. Palmeiras is preparing a new offer to Botafogo that will include a fixed sum and bonuses for meeting certain targets, and it is expected to be sent by the middle of the week. A player exchange is not being considered at this time, as Botafogo believes the players Palmeiras could offer would not currently strengthen the team.

According to Globo.com, Palmeiras continues to negotiate with Botafogo to sign Danilo for 2026.

According to Globo.com, a document mentions the potential for a negotiation between Botafogo and Palmeiras for Danilo.

The agreement requires that the value be deposited to Montegra Holdings, which is due to a fiduciary assignment of rights over the athletes of Botafogo.

Globo.com reported that Palmeiras made an initial offer to Botafogo for Danilo before the Copa. The offer included R$ 120 million plus Naves, creating a financial composition equivalent to approximately R$ 135 million. That offer did not receive a response, and there has been no subsequent contact with Botafogo. People linked to Danilo state that no current financial proposal is of interest to both the player and Botafogo. Before the Copa, Botafogo's intention was to receive proposals of around 40 million euros, an amount Palmeiras considers unfeasible. The asking price expectations have decreased due to his limited playing time with the national team. According to people linked to Danilo, a financial composition between 30 million and 35 million euros, which includes fixed and variable values, would be required to convince Botafogo. Palmeiras finds it difficult to commit to a composition exceeding 30 million euros and is awaiting developments from the European market. The club relies on a good relationship with Danilo to strengthen its position. Danilo is the only target for the board and technical staff in this transfer window, and they view the international market as the primary competitor.

Globo.com reports on the negotiations between Palmeiras and Botafogo for the return of Danilo. According to the report, Palmeiras was willing to pay R$ 120 million plus the defender Naves, while Botafogo was asking for more than R$ 200 million. If Danilo is signed, he could compete for the number 8 position and has the ability to play box-to-box, a role he previously filled during his first period at the club under Abel Ferreira.

According to Globo.com, Palmeiras' board considers Danilo its main target for the season. Danilo has a contract with Botafogo until July 2029. The terms of a proposal have been with Botafogo for a few weeks and there has not yet been a response. Danilo is currently Palmeiras' only activity in the market. In the Brazilian market, Palmeiras is considered the favorite, partly because of its relationship with Danilo, who was developed in its youth ranks.

Palmeiras has made an offer to Botafogo to sign Danilo. According to ESPN, an offer of approximately 25 million euros was presented to the club and the player's representatives before the World Cup. ESPN was also told by people close to Palmeiras' management that they consider the proposal to be strong for signing Danilo. The initial indication from Botafogo is that they expect to receive more money for the midfielder, believing they can receive between 30 and 35 million euros. Palmeiras does not plan to meet those figures and is confident that their offer to Botafogo is the best one.

According to a report from ESPN BR, Palmeiras will increase the pace of their talks with Botafogo to sign Danilo, who Botafogo values at approximately 30 million euros, which is R$ 177 million at the current exchange rate.

ESPN BR reported that Botafogo's management is aware of the interest from Palmeiras in midfielder Danilo and is open to selling him in the middle of the year.

Globo.com reports that Palmeiras is interested in signing Danilo from Botafogo. The report also states that Palmeiras is evaluating an investment of R$ 175 million to repatriate Danilo and is awaiting a decision to determine if it will proceed with negotiations with Botafogo.

Globo.com reports that Palmeiras' interest in acquiring Danilo from Botafogo depends on his World Cup performance. The report states that Palmeiras desires only one player currently: Danilo. If he performs well, the likelihood of a proposal from a major European club increases, and should that occur, Danilo will play outside Brazil. To date, only clubs that do not interest Danilo, such as Zenit, have indicated they will make offers.

Textor stated that a player cannot ask to leave because they want to play at Palmeiras or any other club. He also said that Danilo will join Palmeiras, if they want him, and that someone will accept 25 million euros.

According to Globo.com, Botafogo is seeking to sell Danilo for approximately 40 million euros and aims for his valuation to increase during the World Cup. Palmeiras considers these amounts to be unfeasible for a negotiation. Palmeiras does admit the possibility of investing more than was previously discussed in the year, with a potential total of approximately 30 million euros that would include fixed amounts and bonuses. Previously in the year, Palmeiras had considered a fixed offer of 20 million euros, which could have increased to 25 million euros with bonuses, but the club withdrew after John Textor stated he did not wish to negotiate. Since that time, Palmeiras has continued conversations with Danilo's staff to monitor the situation. There is currently no ongoing deal between the clubs. Leila Pereira stated that while Palmeiras is interested in Danilo, there are no talks occurring at present and that other priorities exist. Multiple clubs are interested in Danilo. The European market is considered a probable and priority destination for him, particularly as the intention is to determine his future only after the World Cup. Danilo desires to be on a top team where he can compete for titles. In recent weeks, Palmeiras had a concern that it would not be possible to consider Danilo for 2026 because of the risk that he would exceed the 12-game limit in the Brazilian league. Danilo made a request not to be listed for what would have been his 13th game, and he was subsequently removed.

Leila Pereira stated that Palmeiras has an interest in Danilo but said there are currently no negotiations with Botafogo for the player. She also mentioned that several clubs are interested in him. Palmeiras is monitoring the situation, although the club feels it is unlikely that Botafogo would open talks with a Brazilian rival. The club may make an offer higher than the 25 million euros proposed at the beginning of the year, but a new amount has not been defined. Botafogo has decided Danilo will not be used until after the World Cup. Flamengo also has an interest in the player.

Leila Pereira, president of Palmeiras, stated to ESPN that it is obvious she would like Danilo to return to the club, which she referred to as his home. She also said that several clubs want Danilo and that she has a special affection for him as a youth product of the club. Pereira mentioned she is extremely happy for him representing Brazil in the national team. She added that Palmeiras is not actively seeking new players, but they are open to signing exceptional players if the staff considers them a valuable addition. Palmeiras made an approach for Danilo earlier this year with a proposal of up to 25 million euros, including a fixed amount and bonuses, but at that time Jhon Textor, who leads Botafogo's SAF, said he did not want to negotiate him. Palmeiras then withdrew from formal negotiations but maintained their interest in Danilo. In recent weeks, Palmeiras was concerned that Danilo might exceed the limit of 12 matches in the Brazilian league and become ineligible to play for another Serie A team. Danilo requested not to be listed for the 13th match, which caused discomfort at Botafogo and resulted in his subsequent removal from the squad, creating an opportunity for Palmeiras.

Palmeiras president Leila Pereira stated that it is obvious she would like Danilo to return to the club, which she referred to as his home. Pereira also said that while the Palmeiras squad is considered complete, they are open if there are special players the coaching staff thinks are a worthwhile acquisition. An investment in his economic rights will be necessary to acquire Danilo, who has a contract with Botafogo. Botafogo values him at 40 million euros (R$ 233 million).

Palmeiras is one of the main clubs interested in the return of Danilo. ESPN reports that Palmeiras started discussions with Botafogo. The report adds that Palmeiras indicated it would not negotiate for a price around 30 million euros, referencing that the player's previous transfer to Nottingham Forest was for a smaller sum. Previously, John Textor sent a letter to Leila Pereira stating he would not negotiate for Danilo, which caused Palmeiras to withdraw. Currently, Palmeiras and Botafogo are in discussions about the player, but there is no proposal at this moment. Botafogo has communicated to the market that the club will wait for the best proposals before making a decision.

Caio Ribeiro says that Palmeiras made an offer for Danilo, who is at Botafogo.

Globo.com reported that Botafogo has removed Danilo, and he will not participate in training and matches for the next few weeks, a decision that is valid until the player's future is resolved. Danilo wishes to remain an option for the Brazilian football market in the next transfer window. Palmeiras is interested in signing Danilo, and the club is his priority in Brazil. Leila Pereira is the main supporter of the signing. If Danilo completes his 13th game in the Brasileirão, he will not be able to play for another team.

According to Globo.com, Danilo's preference in Brazilian football is Palmeiras because of his identification with the club that developed him. Palmeiras' president, Leila Pereira, is the main proponent of signing Danilo and has led conversations in recent weeks. There is not yet an agreement for the transfer, but the club remains in contact with Danilo's representatives and is aware of the required fee. The current expectation is that Botafogo is seeking a transfer fee of 40 million euros, but the market currently suggests a fee between 25 and 30 million euros. Botafogo is aware that 40 million euros is high for Brazilian football and considers it difficult to receive such an offer from Flamengo or Palmeiras. Danilo is not in a hurry to decide and plans to make his decision only after the World Cup.

According to Globo.com, Palmeiras has an interest in Danilo. The transfer is seen as unlikely. Danilo has played 11 matches and could only play one more to be eligible for a transfer to another Série A team. Botafogo has signaled they are not willing to negotiate for Danilo in the domestic market. John Textor, owner of SAF alvinegra, communicated in February that he would not sell the player to Palmeiras, and this stance remains.

If Botafogo signals openness to offers for Danilo, Palmeiras is expected to make a proposal. According to ESPN, Botafogo's main goal is to achieve a transfer fee of around 40 million euros (R$ 233 million). Botafogo views the World Cup as an opportunity for Danilo to further increase his value, potentially enabling a high-value transfer to European football.

According to Globo.com, Palmeiras has shown interest in signing Danilo and is willing to invest a value similar to other interested clubs. The transaction is not straightforward for Palmeiras because it is a Brazilian club. Although Botafogo has a financial need, the club would need to be convinced to accept an agreement. It is believed that Danilo's desire will be a decisive factor. Currently, there is no official proposal.

Danilo is ready to return to Palmeiras if he does not receive an offer from abroad.

Anderson Barros confirmed that Palmeiras continues to have great affection for Danilo. Barros said that Danilo always had a close relationship with Palmeiras and left for Nottingham Forest because he needed to. Barros stated that Danilo is currently at Botafogo, which is undergoing a complicated management situation, and that Barros does not believe that a transfer can progress now. Barros also said that for Danilo to play in the Brazilian Championship for another team, he cannot play 12 matches for Botafogo, and that so far Danilo has played six matches in Série A. Barros said that Palmeiras is monitoring the situation.

Palmeiras targeted Danilo earlier this year, but the club's management decided not to proceed with negotiations due to the good relationship between the clubs. Palmeiras perceived an opportunity to sign Danilo due to Botafogo's delayed image rights payments, which resulted in the player threatening to terminate his contract. After pressure, Botafogo regularized the payments for the entire squad, but there is currently a delayed payment again. According to ge, Danilo's intention at this moment is to remain at Botafogo until the World Cup.
