Nottingham Forest midfielder Danilo joins Botafogo

Danilo, a midfielder for Nottingham Forest, signed a four-year contract with Botafogo of Brazil.

For a reported £16 million, the Brazilian left Palmeiras to join Forest in January 2023.

Most of his 62 appearances in all competitions came during his first full season with the team.

The 24-year-old fractured his ankle in the first-day tie against Bournemouth, and he only made 13 appearances in 2024–25.

Forest stated: “Everyone at Nottingham Forest thanks Danilo for his contribution while at the club, wishing him the very best for the next stage of his career.”
