📈 Here are the 20 most valuable players in world football | OneFootball

This year looks like it’s going to be the summer of major transfers.

It feels as if every big, European club has some business in the pipeline, with the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester United and Barcelona all ready to break records in order to get the men they want.

But what exactly is the market value for these players? And who is the game’s most expensive?

Transfermarkt, a database for all things football, have looked into their stats and come up with a top 20 that seems hard to argue with.

Teenagers Jadon Sancho and Kai Havertz are there representing the Bundesliga while Jan Oblak comes out as the game’s most valuable goalkeeper.

Paul Pogba, potentially off to Juventus or Madrid, is in at €100m after a fairly mediocre season while N’Golo Kané continues to be seen as one of the best midfielders around with his own nine-figure valuation.

And now into the top 10, we have two Liverpool players after their Champions League heroics this season.

Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané get a combined total of €280m with Manchester City pair Raheem Sterling and Kevin De Bruyne in seventh and eighth.

Eden Hazard, who signed for Real Madrid just last week is the fifth most-valued player in the game with Harry Kane in a surprise third.

What perhaps isn’t too much of a shock is who is in first place.

Kylian Mbappé has continued his astronomical rise this season, and is now, by Transfermarkt at least, valued at €200m.

We’ve just got one complaint though – Lionel Messi in sixth?
