Odilon Kossounou

In February 2026, reports linked to Newcastle United's interest estimated the player's market value at €25 million. His permanent transfer from Bayer Leverkusen to Atalanta was completed in July 2025 for a reported fee of €20 million. This followed a loan deal from August 2024, for which Atalanta paid a fee between €5 million and €5.5 million. The initial purchase option was widely reported to be €25 million, which Atalanta successfully negotiated down after the player sustained an injury.

Our valuation for Odilon Kossounou is anchored by his recent permanent transfer to Atalanta in July 2025 for a total outlay of €25 million (€20M transfer fee plus a €5M loan fee). This figure is reinforced by a February 2026 market value estimate of €25 million. Given his long contract until 2029 and reported interest from Premier League clubs like Newcastle and Crystal Palace, we anticipate Atalanta would demand a significant premium, pushing the likely value higher.
