Carlos Vicente

The most significant valuation is the completed transfer from Deportivo Alavés to Birmingham City in January 2026, with reports consistently citing a fee of €8 million (or approximately £7 million) plus potential add-ons. Prior to this move, in summer 2025, Alavés reportedly demanded €8-10 million and rejected offers of around €8 million from clubs including Olympiacos, Southampton, and Krasnodar. A release clause of €20 million was repeatedly mentioned during his time at Alavés. Transfermarkt valuations have fluctuated, with figures of €8 million (May 2025), €10 million (August 2025), and most recently €7 million (May 2026) being reported.

Our valuation is driven by the very recent and confirmed transfer of Carlos Vicente to Birmingham City from Deportivo Alavés in January 2026 for a fee of €8 million, potentially rising with add-ons. This concrete transaction provides a strong anchor. The range is supported by a recent Transfermarkt valuation of €7 million at the lower end and acknowledges his long-term contract which runs until 2029.
