Live updates on transfer rumours.
TransferFeed valuation based on market analysis.
In September 2026, reports indicate the transfer from VfB Stuttgart to Brighton & Hove Albion was finalized for a fee between €22 million and €23 million. Just prior to this, Real Madrid reportedly had a buy-back option valued at approximately €10 million for summer 2026, which they did not exercise. Throughout late 2025 and early 2026, this buy-back clause was variously reported at values between €10 million and €15 million. The player's market value, as estimated by Transfermarkt, reportedly rose from €15 million in March 2026 to €20 million by May 2026. The initial transfer from Real Madrid II to VfB Stuttgart in July 2025 was for a reported fee of €3 million.
Our valuation is driven by the recently completed transfer of Chema Andrés to Brighton & Hove Albion in September 2026. Reports consistently place the fee between €22 million and €23 million, which aligns with his strong performance at VfB Stuttgart that attracted interest from multiple Premier League clubs and led to a Champions League qualification. This represents a significant increase from his previous transfer fee and the value of Real Madrid's unexercised buy-back clauses.
