Duje Caleta-Car

Recent reports from May-June 2026 indicate Real Sociedad declined a purchase option for the player, valued between €3 million and €4 million, after a season-long loan that cost €500,000. In June 2025, reports suggested Trabzonspor might consider a fee of around €5 million. In July 2025, his Transfermarkt value was noted at €7 million. His most recent completed transfer was from Southampton to Lyon in July 2024 for a reported €3.6 million. Previously, he moved from Marseille to Southampton in September 2022 for €8 million.

Our valuation for Duje Ćaleta-Car is primarily shaped by Real Sociedad's recent decision not to exercise their purchase option, which was consistently reported to be between €3.5 million and €4 million. This sets a clear upper boundary on his current value. This figure aligns closely with his last permanent transfer fee of €3.6 million to Lyon in July 2024. The reported interest from Trabzonspor at around €5 million provides a potential ceiling, but the declined option is the most concrete and recent data point.
