Marin Ljubičić

In March 2026, reports indicated Fortuna Düsseldorf paid a combined €500,000 for a loan fee and salary for the remainder of the season. His market value was listed at €2.5 million by Transfermarkt in January 2026. The most significant recent completed transfer was his move from LASK Linz to Union Berlin in February 2025 for a reported €4.5 million. Prior to that, he moved from Hajduk Split to LASK Linz in January 2023 for €2.4 million.

Our valuation is driven by the significant drop in Marin Ljubičić's market position since his €4.5 million transfer to Union Berlin in February 2025. His lack of playing time and subsequent loan to the 2. Bundesliga suggest Union will struggle to recoup their initial investment. The reported Transfermarkt value of €2.5 million serves as a strong anchor for his current worth, reflecting this depreciation while acknowledging the underlying talent that prompted the initial high fee.
