Matei Ilie

In May 2026, CFR Cluj's owner reportedly set an asking price between €1,500,000 and €2,000,000 after rejecting a €900,000 offer. In March 2026, reports suggested the club would not sell for under €2,000,000. This followed a rejected €900,000 bid from a Russian club in February 2026, when Transfermarkt's valuation was €1,700,000. Earlier, in September 2025, CFR's asking price in discussions with Dinamo was cited as between €700,000 and €1,000,000, with Transfermarkt valuing him at €2,000,000.

Our valuation for Matei Ilie is driven by CFR Cluj's publicly stated asking price of €1,500,000 to €2,000,000 in May 2026. This stance is supported by their repeated rejection of a €900,000 offer earlier in the year, indicating they are holding firm for a significantly higher fee.
