Ranking of the twelve most valuable footballers in the world

In this article, we bring you a ranking of the twelve most valuable footballers in the world. This statistic is headed by Kylian Mbappé, who is now the subject of much speculation in connection with his possible transfer to Real Madrid.

1. place – Kylian Mbappé

Kylian Mbappé has the highest value of any player in the world. This striker is a central figure for both PSG and the French national team and at twenty-two years of age, he still has a lot to do. His market value of £144 million is well deserved.

Currently, his name is being closely linked with a move to Real Madrid. It will be interesting to see if an agreement is reached between the two clubs and this mega-transfer actually comes to fruition.

2. place – Erling Haaland

If anyone is nipping at Mbappe’s heels, it’s Erling Haaland. The Norwegian marksman may have a value of £117 million, but that is rising steeply every year. Moreover, Haaland is still two years younger than Mbappé, so Borussia Dortmund definitely don’t have to worry about their future.

3. place – Harry Kane

In third place is Harry Kane, who is valued at £108 million on the market. The 28-year-old striker has been driving Tottenham’s attacking play for eight years and is already one of the stalwarts of the English national team.

4. – 8th place – Jadon Sancho, Mohamed Salah, Romelu Lukaku, Kevin De Bruyne, Neymar

The fourth spot is shared by five players who are worth £90 million according to the Transfermarkt website. In this top five we find one youngster who will continue to make fans happy for many years to come with his performances and that is Jadon Sancho. Sancho is also the youngest player on this list.

Then we have the striker Romelu Lukaku, who is deservedly reaching his highest value at the moment, or Neymar, who has seen a big drop in recent years, when the highest historical value of Neymar on the market was as high as £162 million, which today would be enough to take the top spot.

That still leaves the Premier League pair of Kevin de Bruyne and Mohamed Salah. It should be noted that even for these two, age is already negatively affecting their market values, but they are still players who are a huge asset to their club.

9. – 12th – Frenkie de Jong, Bruno Fernandes, Joshua Kimmich, Raheem Sterling

The rankings are rounded off by this quartet of footballers, who are worth an identical £81 million. The youngest of these footballers is twenty-four-year-old Frenkie de Jong, who is one of the few in Barcelona’s squad to convince fans of his qualities with his current performances.

Then there is Raheem Sterling, who is the only one of the four who is not reaching his career high. The other players, on the other hand, still have a lot of potential for growth and their price could increase.
