James Wilson

In February 2026, reports indicated Hearts' asking price for the player was approximately £8 million (around €9.5 million) amid interest from Arsenal. During the same period, a loan deal was agreed for his move from Hearts to Tottenham U21 which reportedly included an option-to-buy clause of around £2.5 million (approx. €3 million); Tottenham did not activate this option in May 2026. The player's Transfermarkt value was also reported at €1.2 million in February 2026.

Our valuation is driven by the reported £2.5 million (approx. €3 million) option-to-buy clause included in James Wilson's loan to Tottenham in February 2026. The fact that Tottenham ultimately declined to exercise this option in May 2026 suggests his current value is perceived to be below that figure. However, the initial strong interest from both Tottenham and Arsenal supports a valuation significantly above his last reported market value, leading to our estimated range.
