Maxwel Cornet

Reports from 2024 and 2025 reference the player's August 2022 transfer from Burnley to West Ham for a fee of around €20-21 million. His prior move from Lyon to Burnley in August 2021 was for €15.0 million. More recent reports indicate a significant drop in value, with his high salary (reportedly €4 million annually as of August 2025) being a major obstacle for interested clubs. By July 2026, reports suggested West Ham were even considering a mutual contract termination, implying a transfer value near zero.

Our valuation for Maxwel Cornet is driven by consistent reports of West Ham's desire to offload him due to injuries and performance, culminating in discussions of a potential contract termination. His €20.7M transfer in 2022 serves as a high-water mark, but subsequent loan spells and reports of Genoa seeking a "knockdown price" indicate a dramatic decline in market value. The primary obstacle to any move appears to be his high salary, suggesting any transfer fee would be minimal.
