Denis Ciobotariu

In January 2026, reports mentioned a transfer offer of €400,000 from Katowice, which was rejected by Rapid Bucuresti. During the same period, his Transfermarkt valuation was cited at €1.3 million. A year prior, in January 2025, Rapid was reportedly asked to pay €300,000 to sign him immediately from Sepsi, after Sepsi had initially wanted around €500,000 in December 2024. His Transfermarkt value was noted as €1.2 million in December 2024. He ultimately completed his transfer from Sepsi to Rapid Bucuresti in January 2025 for a fee of €50,000, as he was in the final six months of his contract.

Our valuation is driven by the concrete, rejected offer of €400,000 from Katowice in January 2026, which establishes a clear floor for negotiations. The upper end of the range is influenced by Denis Ciobotariu's current Transfermarkt valuation of €1.3 million and his long-term contract until 2028, giving his club a strong negotiating position. The estimate reflects a likely compromise figure, as reports indicate negotiations are advancing.
