Thom van Bergen

Recent reports from summer 2026 indicate AZ was willing to pay up to €5 million, an amount that was rejected by FC Groningen. Specifically, a bid of €5 million from AZ was reportedly turned down in July 2026. Throughout June 2026, Groningen's asking price was consistently reported at €5 million, though their rejection of a bid at that level suggests their actual valuation is higher. The player's market value according to Transfermarkt was reported as €3.00 million in June 2026, an increase from €2.00 million in May and January 2026.

Our valuation is driven by FC Groningen's consistent rejection of offers from AZ, including a reported bid of €5 million. Given that Thom van Bergen has a long-term contract until 2028, Groningen holds a strong negotiating position, suggesting any successful bid would need to be significantly higher than what has been offered to date.
