David Datro Fofana

In January 2026, Chelsea's asking price for a permanent transfer is consistently reported as £10 million (approx. €12 million), with the club seeking to recoup their initial investment. During the same period, his Estimated Transfer Value was cited at €7.1 million, while Transfermarkt valued him at €5 million. Previously, in August 2025, Chelsea's asking price was reportedly higher at £15 million (approx. €18 million), and in August 2024, they were expecting around €18 million. A stalled loan-to-buy option with AEK Atene in September 2024 was linked with a high figure of €24 million, though other reports suggested a fee under €10 million. The player's original transfer from Molde to Chelsea in January 2023 was for a reported €12 million.

Our valuation is driven by Chelsea's consistent and recent asking price of £10 million (approximately €12 million), which aligns with their initial €12 million investment in David Datro Fofana. While multiple clubs are interested, they are reportedly deterred by this price, suggesting a final negotiated fee may be slightly lower. The lower end of our range is influenced by third-party market valuations which sit between €5 million and €7.1 million.
