Yan Couto

In August 2026, reports on the Como deal mentioned a purchase option of €22 million, 'over €20m', or 'approximately 20 million euros', alongside a loan fee of €2-3 million. Throughout July 2026, the purchase option was consistently reported at €20 million. It was also noted in July 2026 that Borussia Dortmund ideally wanted a fee comparable to the €25 million they paid for the player. An April 2026 report cited his Transfermarkt value at €20 million. The most significant recent completed transfer was from Manchester City to Borussia Dortmund in July 2025 for a fee of €25 million.

Our valuation is driven by the highly consistent and recent reports surrounding Yan Couto's loan-to-buy move to Como. Multiple sources in July and August 2026 repeatedly cite a purchase option clause valued between €20 million and €22 million. This figure is a slight decrease from the €25 million Borussia Dortmund paid in July 2025, which aligns with reports suggesting the club was not fully satisfied with his performances, making the €20-22M range a credible current market valuation.
