Ayodele Thomas

In September 2026, reports indicated NEC would pay RB Leipzig a transfer fee of approximately €1,000,000. This followed an August 2026 reported Transfermarkt value of €1,000,000. Earlier, in February 2026, RB Leipzig completed his transfer from Jong PSV for a reported fee of €400,000 when he had an expiring contract. His Transfermarkt value was reported as €650,000 in January 2026 and December 2025, and €500,000 in November 2025.

Our valuation is driven by the consistent reports from September 2026 stating that NEC will pay approximately €1 million for Ayodele Thomas's permanent transfer from RB Leipzig. This figure is supported by his Transfermarkt valuation from August 2026. The much lower €400,000 fee paid by Leipzig in February 2026 is considered less relevant as it was for a player with an expiring contract.
