João Cancelo 

Based on available data, João Cancelo transferred from Manchester City to Al-Hilal in August 2024 for a reported €25 million. His Transfermarkt value was cited as €15 million in July 2025 and €10 million in December 2025. Throughout early 2026, Al-Hilal's asking price was consistently reported at €15 million, with one report in March 2026 mentioning a minimum of €8 million. By June 2026, reports indicated Al-Hilal had lowered their demand to €10 million, and by July 2026, multiple sources claimed a final agreement with FC Barcelona was reached for approximately €10 million.

Our valuation is driven by numerous consistent reports from 2026 stating Al-Hilal's initial asking price for João Cancelo was €15 million. However, more recent reports from June and July 2026 indicate the Saudi club lowered their demand to €10 million, with multiple sources suggesting a final agreement with FC Barcelona has been reached at this figure. The player's publicly stated desire to remain in Europe and join Barcelona permanently has significantly influenced the negotiations, leading to the lower final fee.
