Lassine Sinayoko

In January 2026, reports suggested Lassine Sinayoko was potentially available for around £8 million (~€9.5 million), with a Transfermarkt value of €7 million. This followed reports from December 2025 of Manchester United negotiating a free transfer for the following summer before he extended his contract. During the summer of 2025, Auxerre's asking price was consistently reported as €10 million. A transfer to Lens for a reported €8 million (including bonuses) was said to be nearly complete before collapsing. During that same period, several bids were reportedly rejected, including offers from Nice up to €7 million, and from Dynamo Moscou and St. Pauli in the €5-6 million range. His Transfermarkt value at that time was listed as €4 million.

Our valuation is driven by the consistent and specific figures reported in the summer of 2025 and early 2026. The near-completed transfer of Lassine Sinayoko to Lens for €8 million, Auxerre's repeated asking price of €10 million, and a January 2026 report suggesting availability for around £8 million (~€9.5 million) provide a clear framework. The player's recent contract extension to 2027 strengthens Auxerre's negotiating position, justifying a value towards the upper end of this established range.
