Shea Charles

In May 2026, reports cited Southampton's valuation as high as £30 million (~€35,000,000), with other suggestions that a transfer would cost over £25 million (~€30,000,000). Manchester United was reportedly considering a deal around £20 million (~€24,000,000). The most consistently reported asking price from Southampton in April and May 2026 was £20 million (~€24,000,000). For context, Nottingham Forest was reportedly willing to bid up to £25 million (~€30,000,000) for other midfield targets. Transfermarkt's valuation was listed at €15,000,000 in May 2026. The player's last completed transfer was from Manchester City U21 to Southampton in July 2023 for a fee of €12.3 million.

Our valuation is driven by multiple reports from April and May 2026 setting Southampton's asking price for Shea Charles between £20 million (€24M) and £30 million (€35M). Widespread interest from several Premier League clubs, including Manchester United and Liverpool, suggests a competitive bidding situation is likely, pushing the final fee above the lower end of that range. This represents a significant appreciation from his €12.3 million transfer in July 2023.
