Christos Mandas

In January 2026, reports detailed a loan-to-buy deal for Christos Mandas from Lazio to AFC Bournemouth with a total value cited between €15 million and €22 million; one specific report mentioned a €3 million loan option with an €18 million purchase option. Lazio's asking price was reportedly €18-€20 million. In late 2025, Lazio's valuation was consistently reported between €10 million and €20 million. In summer 2025, a Wolverhampton offer of around €20 million was reported, while a previous €12 million bid from August 2024 was reportedly rejected. Transfermarkt values of €5 million and €7 million were also cited in reports from late 2025 and early 2026. The initial loan from Lazio to AFC Bournemouth in January 2026 was completed for a reported fee of €1.5 million.

Our valuation is driven by the detailed January 2026 negotiations between Lazio and AFC Bournemouth. Multiple reports from that period consistently placed the total value of a potential deal, including a loan and purchase option/obligation, between €15 million and €22 million. This range is supported by Lazio's reported asking price of €15-€20 million in late 2025 and a significant reported offer of around €20 million from Wolverhampton in summer 2025 for Christos Mandas.
