Michael Folorunsho

Most recently, in May 2026, it was reported that Cagliari decided not to activate their purchase option, which was consistently cited as €8 million. Similarly, in January 2025, Fiorentina's loan reportedly included a purchase option or obligation valued between €8 million and €9 million, which was also not made permanent. In contrast, reports from September and October 2024 mentioned significant prior interest from Atalanta, with a deal valued at around €18-20 million and a specific proposal of €15 million that ultimately did not materialize. A loan offer from Torino in July 2025 reportedly included a €1 million fee. The completed loan from Napoli to Cagliari in July 2025 involved a reported fee of €500,000.

Our valuation is driven by the consistent, but ultimately rejected, €8 million purchase options included in Michael Folorunsho's recent loans to Fiorentina and Cagliari. This figure appears to be Napoli's asking price, but the market's reluctance to meet it suggests a slightly lower current value. While stronger interest from Atalanta in 2024 reportedly valued him as high as €15-20 million, his subsequent inconsistent playing time has likely lowered his market price, leading us to an estimate just below the unexercised option fee.
