Sancho at 13th is the highest ranked United player. Agree with the list?

I think Diaz is a bit too high personally as is De Jong.

 

[NewYorkRed]

Agree with everyone on there except…Ferran Torres? How is he on that list haha. Diaz also you could make an argument needs to show more before he belongs on there.

 

[Skills]

Bellingham's worth more than Foden? Seems a bit nutty

I'd probably only agree with Haaland, Mbappe & Fodens valuations I think.

Edit: and Pedri

 

[Red Star One]

All a bit pointless IMO. Do you see City accepting a 93m bid for Dias?

 

[Sassy Colin]

Foden in the top 10, really?

Not so long ago, Rashford would have been up there

 

[Pickle85]

Tchouameni is literally about to go for 100 mill so should surely be up there.

 

[Polar]

Out: Luis Diaz
In: Ansu Fati

Eduardo Camavinga is an alternative to Ferran Torres.

I also think Matthijs de Ligt is up there.

 

[didz]

I thought CIES took the financial circumstances of clubs into account when deciding player values? Makes 3 Barcelona players being in the top 10 a bit odd. Even more odd - they are valuing Serginio Dest at 52.9m euros! Something really doesn't seem right there...

 

[jesperjaap]

Bottom three shouldnt even be on the list and surprised Viiscus is number two as well to be honest

Flavour of the month

 

[Sparky Rhiwabon]

So…assuming United have whatever budget we currently have…and if these were “Buy it Now” prices, which one would you choose for us? If any

 

[Giggsy9099]

As much as I don't like them I am surprised that none of the Liverpool players are in the list. Surely Trent is worth a mention in Top 10.

 

[Zetrio2002]

How can someone who scored 55 club goals to date at age 21 be worth more than someone who scored 155 goals at age 21?

 

[Calidad]

Where is Kimmich? Seems a pretty huge omission.

It’s an entirely subjective list anyway and fairly meaningless.

 

[Red the Bear]

Torres and diaz are too high, so is vini who should be behind erling.

 

[didz]

Well for sales, I'd definitely take 67.5m euros for McTominay and 52m for Maguire. Plus 81.2m euros for Greenwood which would basically be money for nothing.

Gavi is there for 58.5m euros and Tchouameni for 60.8m, so that's our midfield done for a decade. Pau Torres at 59.8m euros to replace Maguire, and you've still got 21.9m euros change to go with whatever you think our transfer budget is. Should be able to stretch to Kimmich for 65.9m, because why not.

Dunno what the club has been whinging about all these years, this transfer malarkey is easy!

 

[balaks]

Kane should be on there at least 100m. Diaz much too high as well.

If you click the link in the bolded paragraph it takes you to the top 100.

Kimmich is valued at 65.9m euros

Kane should be on there at least 100m. Diaz much too high as well.

78.1m euros

Feel like I'm living in an alternate universe if Jude Bellingham is the 5th most valuable player in the world, he hasn't done anything in the grand scheme of things.

 

[roonster09]

He isn't, it's according to CIES football observatory who always comes up with very questionable lists.

 

[Red Stone]

Offer him for half price and cash in on Greenwood immediately if this is accurate.

 

[balaks]

Feel like I'm living in an alternate universe if Jude Bellingham is the 5th most valuable player in the world, he hasn't done anything in the grand scheme of things.

He is all hype and very little substance at the moment.

67.5€M Scott McTominay (dm) Manchester United (ENG) 06/2026 25.5

What???

 

[Dolf]

Luis Diaz?

 

[harms]

I think they’ve misplaced the dot.

Agree the stars are ageing but Van Dijk for instance is surely more valuable than Dias?

 

[spe88]

I think Haaland is more valuable than Mbapp€ (I don’t get the hype). But I’m sure we’ll see this season.

 

[tidraKS]

Out: Luis Diaz
In: Ansu Fati

Eduardo Camavinga is an alternative to Ferran Torres.

I also think Matthijs de Ligt is up there.

One of the most overrated youngsters, Ansu Fati.

 

[red_de_pologne]

Kimmich for 60 odd million seems a good deal

The surprises for me was more Vinicius (yes, great, but second?) and Torres. And okay, maybe Diaz too.

That is mental.

What the feck.

 

[Wilt]

[Red Royal]

Ridiculous valuations for some players (McT being one). Where is Neymar, Salah? Timber not on there as he is too short

 

[Bondi77]

Saka is better than that Vinicius clown!

 

[Bondi77]

Feel like I'm living in an alternate universe if Jude Bellingham is the 5th most valuable player in the world, he hasn't done anything in the grand scheme of things.

He is playing for Dortmund.....the magical club that makes a player look ten times better than what they actually are.

 

[Steve Bruce]

He is playing for Dortmund.....the magical club that makes a player look ten times better than what they actually are.

German football makes players look better than they are.

Not many hit English football and be great instantly

 

[V.O.]

Scott McTominay value: €67.5m
Joshua Kimmich value: €65.9m



Sorry lads, throw the whole algorithm in the bin and try again.

 

[Pretzels81]

Ferran Torres? De Jong?

 

[Bondi77]

We will have to take this list to West Ham and use it to get Rice on the cheap!
