The most recent completed transfer occurred in July 2025, when El Hadji Malick Diouf moved from Slavia Prague to West Ham for a reported base fee of €22 million, potentially rising to €25 million with bonuses. Around the same time, Leeds was reportedly interested at a valuation of approximately €25.5 million (£21.5m), while Slavia Prague's asking price for Atalanta was cited as €20 million. Earlier, in February 2025, Brighton reportedly offered around €17.8 million (£15m), but Slavia Prague was holding out for approximately €26 million (£22m). In January 2025, Crystal Palace was linked with a rejected €15 million offer, with Slavia's asking price at the time reported to be around €23.7 million (£20m). Transfermarkt's valuation was reported as €18 million in September 2025 and €25 million in November 2025.

Our valuation is driven by the recent July 2025 transfer of El Hadji Malick Diouf to West Ham for a fee of €22-25 million. His subsequent positive performances in the Premier League, combined with a long-term contract until 2030 and nascent interest from top-tier clubs, suggest a significant and immediate appreciation in his market value.
