Voetbal Primeur has stated that Lorent Tolaj was signed for a reported £1.2m as PAFC triggered his Port Vale release clause, but that PAFC did not insert such a clause in his deal at Home Park.

Belgian sports outlet Voetbal Primeur reported that Swansea City are expected to compete with Anderlecht, Norwich City and Stoke City to sign Lorent Tolaj. The same report added that, specifically regarding Swansea, Vitor Matos could see the Plymouth Argyle player as an ideal replacement for Zan Vipotnik.

Stoke City is considered the main contender to sign Plymouth striker Lorent Tolaj. The 24-year-old Swiss and Kosovan player is reportedly interested in a move back to the area. Norwich City, Swansea City, Anderlecht, and FC Kopenhagen are also monitoring the forward. Celtic has also been previously linked with him. Tolaj has a contract with the English third-division club until mid-2029 and is expected to have a transfer fee of several million euros. He transferred to Plymouth from Port Vale a year ago for a fee of 1.4 million euros. His current valuation on Transfermarkt is 500,000 euros. In the current League One season, he has scored 16 goals and provided 5 assists in 29 appearances. For the Swiss U19 national team, he has made 4 appearances and scored 8 goals. According to reports in January 2026, a potential transfer fee was suggested to be around €6 million. In February 2026, it was reported that Celtic believed they could sign him for what was described as a low price.
