Our valuation for Mika Baur is driven by the completed transfer to Celtic in August 2026. Reports consistently detail a deal with an initial fee of approximately €5.3 million (£4.5m) and a total potential value, including add-ons, of up to €8 million. The transfer occurred despite his key role in Paderborn's promotion, influenced by the fact he had only one year remaining on his contract.
