Mirza Catovic

In February 2026, reports indicated Red Bull Salzburg was prepared to pay €3.5 million, with a potential buy-back clause for Stuttgart valued at over €12 million. In January 2026, talks between VfB Stuttgart and TSG Hoffenheim also reportedly involved a transfer fee of around €3.5 million. Interest from Manchester City was also reported in January 2026, but no financial details were mentioned.

Our valuation for Mirza Catovic is driven by consistent reports from January and February 2026 linking both Red Bull Salzburg and TSG Hoffenheim with a transfer fee of approximately €3.5 million. VfB Stuttgart's reported reluctance to sell and their insistence on a significant buy-back clause suggest they value the player higher, justifying an estimate slightly above the reported bids. The player's long-term contract until 2028 strengthens Stuttgart's negotiating position.
