Jakub Kamiński

In July 2022, the player transferred from Lech Poznań to Wolfsburg for a reported €10 million. In June 2025, his market value was mentioned in reports as €5 million. During his loan negotiations in October 2025, conflicting reports valued his purchase option at figures between €3 million and €7 million. However, multiple reports from late 2025 through May 2026 consistently cited the purchase option for 1. FC Köln as €5.5 million, which the club officially exercised. Following the permanent transfer in May 2026, reports indicated a new release clause of €20 million was included in his contract.

Our valuation for Jakub Kamiński is primarily shaped by his recent performance and transfer activity. While 1. FC Köln just activated a €5.5 million purchase option, this was widely reported as a 'bargain' based on a pre-agreed fee. Considering his successful loan spell, his previous €10 million transfer to Wolfsburg in 2022, and a newly reported €20 million release clause, we estimate his current open-market value has recovered to be in line with his historical high, with potential to grow.
