Carlos Vicente

In January 2026, reports widely converged on a finalized transfer to Birmingham City for an initial fee of €8 million (also reported as £7 million, approx. €8.2 million), with a potential €2 million in add-ons. Earlier in the same month, Alavés was reportedly demanding a fee close to his €20 million release clause. In mid-2025, Alavés reportedly rejected offers of around €8 million from Olympiacos, Southampton, and Krasnodar, while their asking price was cited as €10 million. Transfermarkt's valuation was reported as €10 million in August 2025 and €8 million in May 2025. His previous completed transfer was from Racing Ferrol to Alavés in January 2024 for a reported €600,000.

Our valuation for Carlos Vicente is driven by the highly consistent and numerous reports in January 2026 detailing his finalized transfer from Deportivo Alavés to Birmingham City. Multiple sources converge on an initial fee of €8 million (or £7 million), which represents a substantial and successful bid after Alavés had previously rejected offers around the same value and initially demanded a much higher fee closer to his release clause.
