Silas

In January 2026, reports indicated Silas's transfer from VfB Stuttgart to Mainz 05 involved a small initial fee potentially rising to €1 million with bonuses; Stuttgart's initial demand was reportedly €1.5 million. This followed a period in mid-to-late 2025 where Stuttgart's asking price was consistently cited as €8 million. In September 2024, his loan to Red Star Belgrade reportedly included a purchase option of €10 million, which was ultimately not activated. His Transfermarkt value was reported as €3 million in late 2025 and early 2026.

Our valuation is driven by the confirmed January 2026 transfer of Silas to Mainz 05. With only six months left on his contract at VfB Stuttgart, the reported fee was a small initial amount rising to approximately €1 million with bonuses, while Stuttgart's initial asking price was €1.5 million. This is a significant drop from the €8-10 million valuations mentioned in mid-2025, reflecting his expiring contract status and limited playing time.
