Carles Pérez

In July 2025, reports indicated Carles Pérez's loan to Aris included a mandatory €4 million purchase option, which Aris ultimately declined to activate by June 2026. This followed his permanent transfer from Roma to Celta Vigo in July 2023 for a reported €5.2 million, on top of a prior €1.0 million loan fee in August 2022. By June 2025, due to poor performance, reports suggested Celta was considering letting him leave as a free agent simply to get his high salary off their books.

Our valuation for Carles Pérez is driven by Celta Vigo's explicit desire to offload the player due to his high salary and underwhelming loan spells. The most significant data point is Aris Thessaloniki's decision not to exercise a reported €4 million purchase option, establishing a clear ceiling. Widespread reports that Celta would even consider a contract termination to save on wages suggest his current market value is minimal, likely a nominal fee at best.
