Silas

In May 2026, reports mentioned a potential contract extension at Mainz involving a €500,000 fee. His actual transfer from VfB Stuttgart to FSV Mainz 05 in January 2026 was for a reported initial fee of €150,000, potentially rising to nearly €1,000,000 with bonuses, while Stuttgart's initial demand was reportedly €1,500,000. Throughout mid-to-late 2025, Stuttgart's asking price was consistently reported at around €8,000,000. A loan to Red Star Belgrade in September 2024 included a purchase option of €10,000,000, which was not exercised. His Transfermarkt value was reported as €3,000,000 in early 2026.

Our valuation for Silas is primarily driven by his January 2026 transfer from VfB Stuttgart to FSV Mainz 05. Reports consistently describe the deal as a small initial fee rising to approximately €1,000,000 with bonuses, which we set as our estimate. The range is anchored by a potential €500,000 extension fee at the low end and Stuttgart's initial asking price of €1,500,000 at the high end. The player's expiring contract at Stuttgart and recent injury history explain the significant drop from much higher valuations seen in 2025.
