Bundesliga Market Values: Leipzig’s Diomande Soars, Musiala Drops

Leipzig winger Yan Diomande has experienced a dramatic surge in market value, rising from €45 million to €75 million, according to an update released today by Transfermarkt.de, a portal owned by Axel Springer, the same parent company as Bild and Welt. The 67 percent increase is the largest valuation jump for any player in the Bundesliga since the last market value assessment.

The 19-year-old Ivorian international has been a key contributor for RB Leipzig this season, scoring ten goals and providing six assists in 25 league appearances. His speed – he is the second-fastest player in the Bundesliga with a top speed of 36.3 km/h – and attacking prowess have attracted interest from several top clubs, including Bayern Munich.

RB Leipzig has publicly stated its intention to retain Diomande beyond the current season. Club officials have indicated that any future transfer would require a fee of at least €100 million, potentially making him the club’s most expensive sale to date. Diomande joined Leipzig in July 2025 from CD Leganés for a reported €20 million.

Several other young Bundesliga players too saw their market values increase in the latest assessment. Luka Vuskovic, on loan to Hamburg from Tottenham, had his value rise from €40 million to €60 million. Bayer Leverkusen’s Christian Kofane saw his valuation increase from €22 million to €40 million, while teammate Ibrahim Maza’s value climbed from €25 million to €40 million.

Conversely, some established players experienced declines in their market values. Borussia Dortmund’s Karim Adeyemi saw his value drop from €60 million to €50 million. Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala’s market value decreased by €10 million, falling from €130 million to €120 million, a decline potentially linked to his recent recovery from a fibula fracture.

Alphonso Davies of Bayern Munich also experienced a decrease, with his value falling from €50 million to €45 million. Werder Bremen’s Victor Boniface, currently sidelined with a cartilage injury since December, suffered the most significant percentage drop, plummeting from €12 million to €5 million – a 58 percent decrease.
