Tim van der Leij

In June 2026, reports indicated VfB Stuttgart paid 'just over one million euros' for the player from RKC Waalwijk. In May 2026, the potential fee for the same move was cited as 'more than one million euros' or '1 million euros plus bonuses', with an earlier negotiation point reportedly being a 'high six-figure sum'. In April 2026, RKC was reportedly seeking a fee 'significantly higher than €1.5 million'. Transfermarkt's valuation was reported as €400,000 in May 2026 and €350,000 in April 2026.

Our valuation is driven by multiple consistent and recent reports from May and June 2026 stating that the transfer for Tim van der Leij to VfB Stuttgart was completed for a fee of 'just over one million euros'. While earlier reports mentioned RKC Waalwijk was seeking a fee significantly higher than €1.5 million, the final reported transfer fee is the strongest indicator of his market value.
