Taylor Harwood-Bellis

In August 2026, reports claimed Aston Villa reached an agreement with Southampton for a package worth £30 million (approx. €35.3 million). Throughout the month, Southampton's asking price was consistently cited as being between £25 million and £30 million (approx. €29.4 million to €35.3 million). During negotiations, Aston Villa reportedly had several bids rejected, including offers of £18 million (approx. €21.2 million) and a package of £20 million plus £4 million in add-ons (approx. €28.2 million). Also in August 2026, Benfica had offers rejected, with their maximum bid reportedly being €20 million. Earlier, in January 2026, West Ham had a permanent bid of £12.5 million (approx. €14.7 million) rejected. The player's transfer from Manchester City to Southampton in July 2024 was for a reported fee of €23 million.

Our valuation is driven by multiple credible reports from August 2026 stating that Aston Villa and Southampton have finalized a club-to-club agreement for Taylor Harwood-Bellis for a package worth £30 million (approx. €35 million). This figure aligns with Southampton's consistently reported asking price of £25-30 million and is corroborated by their rejection of numerous lower bids from both Aston Villa and Benfica throughout the same month.
