Eljif Elmas

Recent reports from June 2026 state Napoli declined to exercise a €17 million purchase option and subsequently had a lower offer of €10-11 million rejected by RB Leipzig. Earlier, in March 2026, this same option was reported at various figures including €16 million and £14 million (~€16.5 million). Throughout 2025, RB Leipzig's asking price was consistently reported between €15 million and €20 million. During this period, Torino had a purchase option valued between €17-18 million which they also declined to exercise. The player's last permanent transfer was from Napoli to RB Leipzig in January 2024 for a reported €24 million.

Our valuation is driven by RB Leipzig's consistent attempts to sell Eljif Elmas following his €24 million transfer in 2024. The upper bound is set by multiple unexercised purchase options held by Napoli and Torino, which were consistently in the €16-18 million range, indicating clubs are unwilling to meet that price. The lower bound is established by RB Leipzig's recent rejection of a €10-11 million offer from Napoli in June 2026. The estimate sits squarely within this well-defined negotiation window.
