Wolfsburg is chasing Blackburn star: Alebiosu in its sights in winter!
The drum is currently being drummed up for Ryan Alebiosu, the talented Blackburn Rovers defender. VfL Wolfsburg is keeping an eye on the 24-year-old, who has already played 20 league games this season. Alebiosu is not only attracting attention in the Championship, but has also attracted interest from other European clubs, including Everton FC and the Serie A clubs US Sassuolo and FC Genoa. As fussballtransfers.com reports, the player's market value is around 4.5 million euros, which could represent a very interesting transfer for Wolfsburg and Everton.
Alebiosu, who was originally born in London and trained at Arsenal, has established himself as an integral part of Blackburn's defense in the current season. He moved from KV Kortrijk to Rovers in the summer and has not only impressed defensively in the games so far, but also scored a goal himself. The defender is currently with the Nigerian national team at the Africa Cup of Nations, where he has not yet played. Many experts assume that interest in Alebiosu will only really develop after his return from Cameroon, as completesports.com notes.
The transfer landscape in football
The transfer period in professional football often brings with it exciting changes. Football clubs have the option to loan, buy or sell players. The requirements and transfer fees vary enormously. Only very few clubs can raise three-digit millions for transfers. An example of this is the record transfer of Neymar, who moved from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain for an incredible 222 million euros in the summer of 2017. However, such amounts are exceptions, as Statista explains.
In the 2024/2025 season, Jhon Durán was the most expensive transfer at 77 million euros from Aston Villa to Al-Nassr. The development of markets, particularly through the Saudi Pro League, shows how quickly the conditions in professional football can change. Stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar himself have also taken this path, although Neymar returned to his native Brazil after unconvincing performances.
In the coming weeks it will be very exciting to see whether Wolfsburg or Everton get the contract for Alebiosu. So for fans of the Bundesliga and Premier League it’s time to keep your eyes open and keep your fingers crossed!
