About the player
Gabriel Justino came through Botafogo's youth ranks and has established himself as a regular starter in the club's defence during the 2025–2026 season, wearing the number 34 shirt. Born in Brazil, the centre-back moved up through the club's academy system without needing an external transfer to reach the first team.
His progression has been steady rather than headline-grabbing: rather than arriving through a marquee signing, Justino built his place through the club's own development structure, and his contract now runs through to the end of November 2028. His market value, estimated at around €650,000.
As a centre-back, Justino's role has been shaped by opportunity at first-team level rather than by international recognition, and his career remains centred on Botafogo, the only club he has represented as a professional. That singular focus on one dressing room, from youth level to now, marks his career to date more than any single moment or match.
