Dan Neil

In January 2026, reports mention a current Transfermarkt market value of €6.5 million, with interested clubs like Rangers reportedly preparing a "small bid" or "low fee" to sign him before his contract expires. In November 2025, it was reported he would be available for a "nominal fee". This is a significant decrease from spring 2025, when, amid interest from clubs including West Ham, Everton, and Roma, reports suggested Sunderland would have considered offers in the £15 million to £20 million range (approximately €17.5 million to €23.5 million).

Our valuation for Dan Neil is primarily driven by his expiring contract, which is set to end in the summer of 2026. This situation drastically reduces his transfer fee from the highs reported in spring 2025. Despite his limited Premier League game time this season, significant interest from multiple clubs, notably Rangers and Ipswich Town, suggests a competitive scenario for a January transfer. Reports of a "small bid" or "nominal fee" being prepared, combined with Sunderland's incentive to sell for PSR reasons, lead us to estimate a modest fee to secure him ahead of a free transfer.
