São Paulo sell Rodrigo Nestor to Bahia, pocket nearly R$ 30m | OneFootball

São Paulo announced this Friday (7) the definitive sale of the midfielder Rodrigo Nestor, 25, to Bahia. In its new model of transparency with the fans, the club informed that the negotiation value for 100% of the athlete's economic rights will be 3.8 million euros (R$ 20.25 million at the current exchange rate), to be paid in three installments, with due dates scheduled for October 31, 2025, August 31, 2026, and August 31, 2027.

Developed in the Cotia youth academy, Nestor was loaned to Bahia at the start of this season, with the Tricolor having already received 1.5 million euros (about R$ 8 million) for this operation.

In addition to the R$ 28.25 million guaranteed from the loan and sale operations, the Morumbi club may receive up to an additional 200,000 euros (about R$ 1 million), contingent on the player's sports performance and Bahia's results in official competitions.

In the event of a future transfer of Nestor to another club, São Paulo will be entitled to receive 20% of any capital gain, calculated on the net profit obtained by Bahia in relation to the amount paid in the current operation.

Rodrigo Nestor joined São Paulo at the age of 11 and was promoted to the professional squad in 2020 after winning 11 titles in Cotia. He played 219 matches for the Tricolor, scoring 12 goals, providing 26 assists, and winning the 2021 Paulista Championship, the 2023 Copa do Brasil – with the unforgettable goal in the final against Flamengo – and the 2024 Supercopa Rei.
