Live updates on transfer rumours.
TransferFeed valuation based on market analysis.
In January 2026, multiple reports consistently state RB Leipzig's asking price for a winter transfer is between €4-5 million, with one UK-based report mentioning a fee of £4.3 million (approx. €5 million). His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €10 million. Earlier, in March-May 2025, reports suggested the club was seeking a transfer fee between €15-18 million when he had over a year left on his contract. His last completed transfer was from VfL Wolfsburg to RB Leipzig in July 2022 for €12 million.
Our valuation is driven by Xaver Schlager's expiring contract situation. Multiple, consistent reports from January 2026 state RB Leipzig is asking for a winter transfer fee of €4-5 million to avoid losing him for free in the summer. This is a significant discount from his €12 million transfer in 2022 and earlier reported valuations, which is typical for a player with only six months remaining on his deal.
