Reports from Brazilian journalists state that Maicon was offered to Cruzeiro. However, Dan Abreu reports that Cruzeiro currently has no interest in signing Maicon. Maicon is well known and rated well internally. According to Abreu, Maicon is expected to have a different destination.

Maicon, a 26-year-old Brazilian who plays for Levski, has an inclination to return to Brazil, where he is being monitored by Flamengo and Cruzeiro. Corinthians has also shown interest, which is described as serious, but may withdraw because they are reportedly unwilling to wait until September for the left-back. In addition to the interest from Brazil, several European clubs are also interested in him. At the start of the season, Spanish teams Sevilla and Betis, Italian sides Torino and Como, and French club Nantes were linked to him, along with the Egyptian club Al Ahly. In the autumn, Levski rejected an offer of more than 3 million euros from a team in Ligue 1. Levski has stated that a concrete offer for Maicon has not been received. The club has also presented a proposal for a contract extension that is currently being reviewed by the player, whose current contract is valid until the summer of 2027. Maicon joined Levski in July 2024 and had 5 goals and 5 assists in 27 appearances in the 2025/2026 efbet Liga season. In the spring of 2026, the club's asking price was reportedly €5 million. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €3.50m.
