Franko Kovačević

In January 2026, reports overwhelmingly indicated that Ferencváros agreed to a €3 million transfer fee with Celje. During the same period, Celje's asking price was cited by various reports as being between €3 million and €4 million, with some suggesting it rose from €3m to €4m. A report linked to Celtic also valued the player at £2.5 million (approx. €3 million). Earlier, in November 2025, Celje's president had stated an aspirational goal of a record €5 million fee. Transfermarkt's valuation was reported as €1.3 million in January 2026, up from €700k in October 2025.

Our valuation is driven by the numerous and consistent reports from January 2026 stating that a transfer for Franko Kovačević to Ferencváros has been agreed for a fee of €3 million. This figure is corroborated by multiple sources and represents the concrete outcome of negotiations, despite earlier asking prices reportedly ranging from €4 million to an aspirational €5 million from Celje's president, reflecting his excellent goal-scoring form.
