The season in the 3rd league has ended, and while Saarbrücken lost in the relegation against Eintracht Braunschweig, Arminia Bielefeld and Dynamo Dresden made the leap into the 2nd Bundesliga. As part of the market value update, the professionals were adapted in the third highest German division. A lot has happened at the top, but the three biggest winners leave the league in summer.
Said El Mala from Viktoria Köln is not only the biggest winner, but also the most valuable professional in the 3rd league after the update. The loan from 1. FC Köln has a plus of 2 million and is rated at 3 million euros. “The 18 -year -old pace dribbler has increased significantly in the second half of the season and comes up to a strong 13 goals in his first complete third division season. In summer, he will now switch to the other side of the Rhine to the 1. FC Köln, where the perspective of Bundesliga is offered. Since it is a rental return. Benedict Hollerbach, two years ago, released around 2 million euros when switching from Wiesbaden to Union Berlin-but was around three years older than El Mala.
Behind El Mala is Dennis Seimen from the U23 of VfB Stuttgart the most valuable professional in the league. After led the Swabians to relegation with good parades, its market value climbs from 1.5 million to EUR 2.5 million. “The 19-year-old goalkeeper talent was able to draw attention to itself with strong performances throughout the season and thus play into the notebooks of numerous interested parties. The contract was awarded second division SC Paderborn-but only loan, because at VfB the U20 national goalkeeper will be the successor to Alexander Nübel. The goalkeeper of his age group is still expanding, ”says Netzer.
Bielefeld’s cup hero Marius Wörl also records a clear plus. For the 21-year-old, who will appear for Hannover 96 in the coming season, 900,000 will be up to EUR 1.7 million. Market value-admin Sebastian Öttl (M-Power) classifies the jump as follows: “The flexibly usable midfielder used the stage in the DFB Cup with outstanding achievements to draw attention to himself. He is not only back in the U-National team, but at the latest with the cup victory against Leverkusen, it was not only national, but also international acquaintance.”
The other big winners are Laurin Ulrich from the second representation of VfB and Ingolstadt Deniz Zeitler. For Ulrich, whose loan was broken down to Ulm in winter so that he could collect more game practice in the 3rd league, it went up by 700,000 to EUR 1.7 million. In 18 games, he was involved in ten goals and thus an important factor for relegation. Zeitler showed his qualities in his first professional season and came to eight goals and four templates in 31 missions. Its market value climbs from 600,000 to EUR 1.5 million in the update.
The losers of the market value update include Dortmund Marcel Lotka, Stuttgarts Wahid Faghir and Jannik Müller from VfL Osnabrück. For Lotka, who received 42 goals in 26 games and played six times to zero, there is a minus of 500,000 to 800,000 euros. His future is uncertain because his contract ends in summer and is not extended. “The market interest in the now 24-year-old goalkeeper has cooled down and it shows once again that Ü23 stem keeper in the 3rd league has a very difficult market. The hottest trace is currently leading to Cologne, where he is in conversation as a primary successor and second man,” explains Öttl.
For Faghir, after nine goal participations in 22 games, it is 300,000 down to 700,000 euros. Müller, who was a clubless for half a year before his engagement in Osnabrück in January, also recorded a devaluation from 300,000 to 400,000 euros.
Viktoria Köln’s good season is rewarded with the biggest plus of all third division teams from 2.4 million to EUR 8.7 million. This is followed by Meister Bielefeld, for whom it goes up by 2 million to EUR 10.2 million. The second team of VfB Stuttgart overtakes relegated Dortmund II and, after an upgrading of 1.7 million, is at the top of the league with EUR 14.6 million. The biggest losers are the two relegated SV Sandhausen and Unterhaching, who have a minus of 900,000 and 800,000 euros.
This is how the transfer market market values work
The transfer market market values are taken into account, taking into account various pricing models and a strong inclusion of the transfer market community, which deals with the values in detailed discussions. The transfer market values are not to be equated with the transfer sums actually paid.
The goal is not to predict a price, but an expectation value. When collecting the market value, both individual transfer modalities and situational framework conditions are relevant to a certain extent. Examples are listed here. Transfer market does not use algorithm (for detailed market value definition).
