Born in Salvador, Danilo came through Palmeiras and won the Copa Libertadores and Brazilian titles as a teenage midfielder before a 2023 move to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League. A serious leg injury disrupted his time in England, but a 2025 return to Brazil with Botafogo revived his career. A strong, dynamic central midfielder, he is one of the younger options in Brazil's engine room.
- Won the Copa Libertadores with Palmeiras as a teenager
- Returned to Brazil with Botafogo after a leg injury in England
- Scored two goals in his first three caps for Brazil
