Ian Murphy

In June 2026, reports indicate a transfer to San Diego FC from Colorado Rapids was agreed for a 2nd round draft pick and a reported $100,000 (approx. €93,000) in performance-based add-ons. Around the same time, his market value was estimated by Transfermarkt at €1.00m. Previously, in December 2024, he completed a transfer from FC Cincinnati to Colorado Rapids for a fee of €475,000.

Our valuation is driven by the recent June 2026 transfer of Ian Murphy to San Diego FC. The fee structure, involving a draft pick and minor performance-based add-ons, indicates a significant drop in value from his December 2024 transfer fee of €475K. This decline is further supported by his very limited first-team appearances in the 2025/2026 season, making his reported market value of €1.00m appear highly optimistic.
