Cláudio Braga is a Portuguese striker, born on 28 October 1999 (age 26), whose recent career has been shaped at Hearts. His current market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
His strongest league return came in 2025–26, when he scored 14 goals in 38 appearances for Hearts. That is the season that gives his profile most of its weight: a centre-forward producing at a clear, useful rate rather than living off promise.
In 2026–27, Braga has made three league appearances and scored one league goal. He has also scored once in the League Cup, with further outings in the Scottish Cup and European qualifiers. Across all competitions this season, he has 10 appearances and two goals for Hearts.
Braga’s career, at least in the Scottish view, is still a developing one: a Portuguese striker with a productive Hearts season behind him and a current campaign spread across domestic and European football.
