Nicolas signs new São Paulo deal with R$100m release clause | OneFootball

One of the great talents of Cotia’s new generation is the gifted left-back Nicolas Bosshardt, who was already promoted to the professional squad by Hernán Crespo this year. The young player, only 18 years old, had his contract extended by São Paulo this Wednesday (14), with a significant increase in his release clause for domestic clubs.

The length of the agreement was only slightly extended. The contract, which previously ran until April 2029, now goes until December. What improved significantly was the release clause for Brazilian teams, which used to be only R$ 45 million, and has now risen to R$ 110 million, as initially reported by Globo Esporte.

Nicolas’s new definitive contract with Tricolor, the club he has been with since he was 11 years old, has already been published in the CBF’s BID (Daily Information Bulletin).

Nicolas was called up by Crespo to the first team at the start of this year and has already made his debut as a starter for São Paulo, in the team’s 3-0 defeat to Mirassol in their first match of the Paulistão.

The youngster played because Tricolor is currently facing problems at left-back. Enzo Díaz is still recovering from surgery performed at the end of 2025 and has not yet been cleared to play by the medical department, and Wendell is another who is not in top physical condition and only made the bench in the State Championship opener.

It’s not just recently that the Cotia prospect has attracted attention from foreign clubs. Barcelona is frequently mentioned as a team monitoring Nicolas’s first steps. Roma is also said to have put the left-back on their radar after the final of the U-20 Copa do Brasil, in which the youngster scored one of the goals that secured the title for Tricolor over América-MG.

His release clause for foreign clubs is set at around 60 million euros. Recently, Nicolas posted on his social media an image of the European passport he recently acquired, indicating that, very soon, he may be the next gem to leave Tricolor.
