After the Premier League, the Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga, Laliga receives new market values and the football world a new most valuable player. While there are 15 devaluations for Real Madrid, FC Barcelona is approaching the great rival by 260 million euros in the squad value. A man-united flop is one of the big winners, two German internationals are among the market value losers and three young Spaniards are upgraded by 20 million euros each.
One of these three is Lamine Yamal from FC Barcelona, who succeeds at the age of 17, which Kylian Mbappé did at 20: The wing striker is the most valuable footballer in the world with a market value of 200 million euros and leaves Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham and Erling Haaland behind.
Laliga expert Tobias Blaseio says: “His spectacular playing style no longer needs comparisons with the best of all time. Lamine Yamal has a very own way of playing football and letting the fans be amazed. It remains to be hoped that he will keep his carefree and injuries.
In 2024/25 there were nine players in Europe who were involved in over 40 goals: eight of them were between 26 and 36-one was 17th Europe’s top scorer with 59 goal participations Barças Raphinha, which is upgraded from 80 million euros, while Robert Lewandowski is downgraded from 15 million to EUR 12 million. Marc-André Ter Stegen takes the same step among the Catalans, whose squad value grows by 46 million euros to 1.07 billion euros after eight revaluations. Pedri, who increases from 120 million to 140 million euros at the age of 22 at the fifth season, also bears a large part.
With Rüdiger, Rodrygo & Vini Jr. – 15x Minus for Real Madrid
From one of the largest market value winners to this time the world’s largest market value loser: Vini Jr. receives a minus of EUR 30 million, loses his status as the most valuable footballer in the world and is now evaluated at EUR 170 million.
Market value-admin Blaseio says: “Vinicius played completely in the previous season. In the top of the world. In 2024/25, he also started a lot, but dismantled with the time and thus lost a lot of status in the world. In combination with the team and at the side of Mbappés, the Brazilian could not stand out in the long run. One can expect more from a player in his class.” In the second half of the season, the attacker only scored three goals in Laliga.
14 other royales have received a minus, including players in their prime of old age such as Rodrygo (-10 to 90 million), Aurélien Tchouaméni (-5 on 75), Eduardo Camavinga (-10 on 60) and endrick (-5 to 35). The user real professionals also include veterans like Antonio Rüdiger (-4 to 20), Thibaut Courtois (-5 on 20) and David Alaba (-4 on 6), while Raúl Asencio (+10 on 40) and top scorer Kylian Mbappé (+10 on 180) continue their upward trend. The bottom line is that the squad value of the record champion, in which the newcomers Dean Huijsen and Trent Alexander-Arnold are included, drops by 74.5 million euros to EUR 1.34 billion.
“At Real Madrid, the time for a change has come after years of success, especially on the defensive. In addition, there are a number of injuries that make it impossible to maintain the high market value level in the total.
Market values LALIGA: Man-United-Flop Antony among top winners
When Antony switched to Betis by loan from Manchester United at the end of January, he probably didn’t even believe that he would play a better second half of the season than the real stars Vini Jr. and Rodrygo. But that’s exactly how it happened. He was involved in 14 goals in 26 games, led his transition club from a 10th place to a European League rank and the final of the Conference League and increases its market value from 20 million euros.
“Betis has offered the Brazilian a suitable environment, he has given back trust with flying colors and hurried from one dream goal to the next. A commitment to Betis will not be financially to be tampered and a loan at the moment seems unrealistic. Antony will have to look for an environment again in which he can fully call up his potential. Blaseio. The contract of the largest transfer flop in Man United’s story has been dated until 2027.
While Antony’s market value curve has only known the way down in the past two years – up to this update – from EUR 75 million, that of Atlético Madrids Giuliano Simeone has been shown exclusively to the top right since March 2024. Like Antony, Simeone, who grows around 10 million, climbs to 35 million euros.
Blaseio justifies the plus for Simeone: “As the son of the coach, it is not easy anywhere in football. As a player Diego Simeone, it is probably difficult for a coach Diego Simeone. Thanks to his irrepressible will on the field, Giuliano is the epitome of the Simeone brand. He gives the team aggressiveness and courage on the wing. Mentality is sufficient in the long run or whether Giuliano also shows a comparable development in other skills.
Simeone’s rise of EUR 1.5 million Market value in March 2024 at EUR 35 million in June 2025 was rapid. Betis talent of Jesús Rodríguez goes one step further at the age of 19: The wing striker was upgraded from one to 30 million euros in less than six months-with an increase of EUR 20 million, he and his compatriots Lamine Yamal and Pedri are one of the largest market value winners in Laliga.
“He is one of the starters of this season. As a wing racer and whirlwind, he is not for no reason compared to club legend Joaquín. The longing for new role models at Betis is great, accordingly the pressure that the young Spaniard is exposed. U21 international.
This is how the transfer market market values work
The transfer market market values are taken into account, taking into account various pricing models and a strong inclusion of the transfer market community, which deals with the values in detailed discussions. The transfer market values are not to be equated with the transfer sums actually paid.
The goal is not to predict a price, but an expectation value. When collecting the market value, both individual transfer modalities and situational framework conditions are relevant to a certain extent. Examples are listed here.
