Marco Richter

In July 2025, reports indicated that Mainz wanted a €2 million buyout fee from Hajduk Split as part of a loan deal. For the 2024/25 season, Hamburger SV reportedly paid a €300,000 fee for his loan from Mainz in August 2024. Looking at his recent permanent transfer history, he moved from Hertha BSC to FSV Mainz 05 for €3.0 million in August 2023, and prior to that, from FC Augsburg to Hertha BSC for €7.1 million in August 2021.

Our valuation for Marco Richter is primarily driven by the reported €2 million buyout fee Mainz 05 sought from Hajduk Split in July 2025. This figure sets the upper bound. However, considering the player's declining trajectory, evidenced by his €3.0 million transfer in 2023, his recent unsuccessful loan spell at HSV, and Mainz's clear intention to offload him, we believe a final fee would be negotiated down from that initial asking price.
