Daizen Maeda

In January 2026, reports linked the player to Trabzonspor for around €16,500,000 (£14M), with a Transfermarkt value of €14,000,000. In late 2025, reports suggested he could be sold for over €12,000,000, with an ETV cited at €13,600,000. This contrasts with Celtic's reported valuation during the summer of 2025, which was consistently around €29,500,000 (£25M), with some reports mentioning a potential demand as high as €30,000,000. In June 2025, Celtic reportedly rejected a €10,000,000 bid from Fenerbahçe. For historical context, he completed a transfer from Yokohama F. Marinos to Celtic in July 2022 for a reported €1,500,000.

Our valuation for Daizen Maeda is driven by the significant shift in his reported asking price. While Celtic consistently valued him at around €29,500,000 (£25M) during the summer of 2025, the player's subsequent and very public desire to leave has weakened the club's negotiating position. More recent reports from late 2025 and early 2026 suggest a lower fee in the €12,000,000 to €16,500,000 range. Our estimate reflects a realistic compromise, sitting above the rejected €10,000,000 bid from Fenerbahçe but well below the peak summer valuation.
