Ismaël Baouf

In August 2025, upon his transfer from RSC Anderlecht II to SC Cambuur, his Transfermarkt value was reportedly €500,000. By October/November 2025, this had risen to €700,000, with one report suggesting his price could exceed €1.5 million. His valuation continued to climb, with Transfermarkt reporting it at €1.4 million in January 2026 and then €2.5 million in March and April 2026. In March 2026, an analyst reportedly stated he could not be signed for less than €5 million. No fee was mentioned for his completed transfer to Cambuur.

Our valuation for Ismaël Baouf is driven by his long-term contract until June 2028 (plus an option), which gives SC Cambuur a very strong negotiating position. Widespread interest from top Dutch clubs and teams in major European leagues, combined with a rapidly rising market value and a pundit's recent estimate of at least €5 million, suggests his transfer fee will significantly exceed his latest Transfermarkt valuation of €2.5 million. Failed negotiations with Rayo Vallecano further indicate a high asking price.
