A market value of at least €45 million is necessary to be counted among the 100 most valuable players on the planet. As of September 2023, 110 players meet that benchmark, and 55 play in the Premier League. The other half is spread across LaLiga (18 players), the Bundesliga (12), Ligue 1 (12), Serie A (9), Liga Portugal (2), and the Saudi Pro League (2).

The oldest among the 110 most valuable players is Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne, who is 32 and has a market value of €70m, enough to share the 40th place. Altogether, six players aged 30 or older are in the ranking, and only three teenagers: Barca stars Gavi and Alejandro Balde plus Benfica defender António Silva—all three are 19.

Erling Haaland remains the most valuable player in the Premier League with a market value of €180m. The 23-year-old Man City striker is also the most valuable player on the planet, together with PSG star Kylian Mbappé. Haaland, in fact, is one of three players in the Premier League with a market value of €100m or more. The other two players are Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka (€120m) and Haaland’s teammate Phil Foden (€110m).

The only other club with multiple players with a market value of €100m or more is Real Madrid. The Spanish giants have four players under contract with a market value of €100m or more (overview).

101/101

In September 2022, players needed a market value of €50m or more to be part of the top 100. It was also the last time Lionel Messi was part of the ranking. The Inter Miami CF star was playing for PSG at the time. At the top were just three players with a market value of €100m or more: Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid), Haaland, and Mbappé. Today, 11 players have a market value of €100m or more. But that might change soon. All of Europe’s top leagues will receive new market value in October, and that will bring change to the top 100.
