J. Mvuka

In February 2026, reports indicated that a loan deal for Joel Mvuka to Celtic included an option to buy for approximately £3 million (~€3.5 million). This followed initial reports of an agreed permanent transfer fee between £3 million and £3.5 million (~€3.5 million to €4.1 million) before a medical issue arose. Other reports suggested a range of £2-3 million (~€2.4 million to €3.5 million). His market value was also cited by Transfermarkt at €2.0 million at the time. For historical context, his transfer from Bodø/Glimt to Lorient in January 2023 was for a fee of €5.5 million.

Our valuation for Joel Mvuka is driven by the highly consistent reports from February 2026 regarding his proposed transfer from Lorient to Celtic. Multiple sources converged on an agreed fee of approximately £3 million (€3.5 million), which was later structured as a loan with an option to buy at the same value. This represents a decrease from his €5.5 million transfer in January 2023, but the consensus around the recent figure provides a strong basis for our estimate.
