Jude and Jobe Bellingham became the first brothers ever to both score at a Club World Cup last weekend - and their combined market value is currently an eye-watering €207 million, according to Playmaker.
Signed by Borussia Dortmund this summer, Jobe scored on his first start for 'BWB' in the Bundesliga side's 4-3 win over Mamelodi Sundowns on Saturday before big brother Jude hit the target for Real Madrid in Los Blancos' 3-1 success over Pachuca on Sunday.
The comparisons between the brothers are inevitable, particularly given the fact that Jude also scored on his first start for Dortmund back in 2020 when he netted in a 5-0 German Cup win over Duisburg.
With older brother Jude now valued by Playmaker at a whopping €185m and Jobe given a market price of €22m, the Bellinghams are certainly hot property - and they are currently the most highly coveted brothers in the business.
Here is the podium for superstar brothers as it currently stands:
The Bellinghams (combined market value of €207 million)
Having both come through the Birmingham City academy, the Bellingham brothers have both been on a stratospheric career path from their early teens - and Jobe's summer move to Dortmund from Sunderland paves the way for him to elevate his game to another level in the Bundesliga next term. Still only 21, Jude Bellingham has established himself as a dyed-in-the-wool Galactico at Real Madrid and it will be interesting to see if 19-year-old Jobe can progress into the senior England squad and play with his brother on the international stage soon. Since the 1950s, only three sets of brothers have played for the Three Lions: Nathaniel Chalobah and Trevoh Chalobah, Gary Neville and Phil Neville, and Bobby and Jack Charlton.
The Mbappés (combined market value of €185 million)
He made something of a slow start, and failed to win any major trophies, during his first season at Real Madrid, but Kylian Mbappé is still generally regarded as one of, if not the, best player in the world and 45 goals in 53 games for Los Blancos underlined his stellar ability. Former PSG academy graduate Ethan, in contrast, is very much in the process of making his name - the midfielder making 10 appearances for Lille in Ligue 1 last term. Kylian's market value of €180m does most of the heavy lifting in terms of this valuable pair - but Ethan's value has climbed to €5m on the back of his progress last term.
The Thurams (combined market value of €121 million)
A more evenly-balanced pair of superstar brothers sits third in our list of 'Galactico Bros': Marcus and Khephren Thuram. Both capped at senior level by France, Inter powerhouse Marcus and Juventus midfielder Khephren both came from good stock given their father Lilian was a World Cup winner and enjoyed a glittering club career for the likes of Monaco, Juventus and Barcelona. Valued at €79m by playmaker, Marcus hit 18 goals for Champions League runners-up Inter last term, while Khephren - who has a market value of €42m - played 49 games for Juve in his first season in Turin. The brothers have actually played against each other on three occasions in their careers so far...with older brother Marcus yet to finish on the winning side!
