Niclas Füllkrug

Recent reports from summer 2026 indicate West Ham's asking price for the player is between €3 million and €5 million, with Lazio having proposed a loan with a €5 million option to buy. However, during the same period, reports also suggested a free transfer was possible, and one Serie A club reportedly offered €0. In April 2026, AC Milan declined to activate a purchase option widely reported to be €5 million. The option included in his January 2026 loan to Milan was inconsistently reported at values ranging from €5 million to as high as €14 million. In November 2025, a €10 million fee was mentioned in connection with Wolfsburg's interest. This is a significant drop from the €27 million fee West Ham paid Borussia Dortmund for his transfer in August 2024.

Our valuation is driven by West Ham's strong desire to offload Niclas Füllkrug due to his high wages, which significantly lowers his market price from their initial €27 million investment. The most recent rumours from summer 2026 consistently place West Ham's asking price between €3 million and €5 million. However, AC Milan's decision in April 2026 not to exercise a purchase option, reportedly set at €5 million, provides a firm ceiling on his current value. The possibility of a contract termination or a free transfer to save on wages further pulls the realistic transfer value down.
