Sam Johnstone

In July 2026, reports cited a Transfermarkt value of €2.0 million. This followed a period in mid-2025 when Wolves were reportedly seeking fees between £7 million (approx. €8.3 million) and £10 million (approx. €11.9 million) for a permanent transfer, with clubs like Burnley and Leeds United linked. In April 2025, his Transfermarkt value was estimated at €8.0 million. His most recent completed transfer was from Crystal Palace to Wolverhampton Wanderers in August 2024 for a fee of €11.9 million.

Our valuation for Sam Johnstone is primarily driven by his club's recent relegation to the Championship, his role as a backup goalkeeper, and his age (33). This is anchored by a recent Transfermarkt valuation of €2 million in July 2026. While he was transferred for €11.9 million in 2024 and linked with moves in the €8-12 million range in 2025, his current circumstances and the reported interest from clubs seeking a low-cost, experienced option suggest a significantly lower fee is now realistic.
