One of the younger players in the squad is 25-year-old midfielder Danilo Santos. Having established himself as a key man for Palmeiras between 2020 and 2023, helping them win the Serie A title as well as two CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores trophies, he moved to Nottingham Forest. In two years at the City Ground, between January 2023 and January 2025, he was largely on the periphery of things before reigniting his career back at Botafogo, earning himself a reputation for being a goal scoring midfielder in the 2026 Serie A campaign.
