Aymeric Laporte

Most recently, in August 2026, reports claimed Athletic Club set an €80 million starting price or release clause for FC Barcelona. This contradicted July 2026 reports of a release clause between €12-15 million, which Athletic sources reportedly disputed, claiming it was higher at €25-30 million. His Transfermarkt value was listed as €9 million in March 2026. In September 2025, his transfer from Al Nassr to Athletic Club was completed for a fee of €10 million, although reports at the time mentioned Athletic's proposal was valued near €17 million and that Al Nassr had received offers over €20 million from other clubs. Earlier, in January 2025, Al-Nassr was reportedly open to a transfer to Real Madrid for approximately €15 million.

Our valuation is driven by the recent transfer saga involving FC Barcelona in summer 2026 and Aymeric Laporte's completed transfer to Athletic Club in September 2025. The range reflects the significant discrepancy in reported release clause figures, from a widely rumoured €12-15 million to a club-disputed figure of €25-30 million. The estimate of €18 million considers the lower clause figures as more plausible while accounting for Athletic's strong negotiating position for a key player on a long-term contract.
