Issahaku Fatawu

In July 2024, the player completed a transfer from Sporting CP to Leicester City for a reported €17 million. In the summer of 2025, a bid from Sunderland, reported at figures ranging from £27 million to £30 million (approx. €31.5-35 million), was reportedly rejected. By January 2026, Napoli was reportedly preparing a €25 million bid. Throughout 2026, numerous reports mentioned a release clause of £30 million or approximately €35 million. However, following Leicester's relegation in May 2026, reports consistently stated the club would accept offers between £15-20 million (approx. €17.5-23 million), with several outlets citing a £20 million (approx. €23 million) valuation. In June 2026, a reported €15 million offer from Beşiktaş was described as insufficient, with Leicester's valuation at that time said to be around €20 million. Transfermarkt valuations mentioned rose from €11 million in August 2025 to €24 million by May 2026.

Our valuation for Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is primarily driven by consistent reports that Leicester City, following relegation, are willing to accept offers in the £15-20 million (€17.5-23 million) range. This is despite a higher release clause around €35 million and a rejected bid of over €30 million a year prior. The player's €17 million transfer in July 2024 and reported interest from multiple clubs, including a potential €25 million bid from Napoli, anchor our estimate within this lowered, post-relegation price bracket.
