The value of CIES players is calculated on the basis of various indicators, but these are mainly the age of the players and the statistics presented.
Although long-time football flags Cristiano Ronald and Lionel Messi still perform well in their respective clubs, their passport data make both lights slip down the list.
It is estimated that the 35-year-old Ronald is currently worth 47 million euros in the transition market, which puts him outside the first hundred. Meanwhile, the 33-year-old Messi has just managed to break into the top 100 most valuable men in football – an Argentine with a market value of 54 million euros is currently in the 97th position.
Robert Levandowski, the best football player of 2020, has also received a not-so-flattering evaluation – 71.2 million
Manchester top United striker Markus Resford is in the top position, followed by Norwegian prodigy Erling Braut Haland.
Top 10 most valuable footballers in CIES rating:
- Marcus Resford (Manchester United) 165.6 million euros;
- Erling Braut Haland (Borussia of Dortmund) EUR 152 million;
- Trent Alexander Arnold (“Liverpool”) 151.6 million euros;
- Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United) EUR 151.1 million;
- Kilian Mbape (Saint-Germain, Paris) EUR 149.4 million;
- Jadeo Sancho (Dussmund’s Borussia) EUR 148.3 million;
- Joao Felix (Madrid “Atletico”) EUR 141.5 million;
- Alfonso Davis (Bayern Munich) EUR 139.2;
- Rahim Sterling (City of Manchester) € 136.9 million;
- Kays Havercs (London Chelsea) 136 million euros.
It should be noted that in the list above, none of the players is over 26 years of age, which indicates that the age of the player is of great importance in the calculation of the value. It is also clear that the value of transfer deals is made up of other aspects, such as the player’s popularity and the ability to bring extra income to the club.
