With Mané among big losers
Although FC Bayern can look back on their eleventh championship in a row, the past few months could hardly have been more turbulent for the record champion. In addition to the upheaval at the top of the club, there is also a lot to be tested in the squad and that is having an impact on market values. In the update, the squad value of the Munich team has fallen by around 70 million to 909 million euros – only Liverpool (-74 million) and Chelsea (-89 million) were hit harder this summer.
Market values FC Bayern: The only plus for Pavard, Kimmich downgraded again
A single revaluation for Benjamin Pavard (27) by 5 million to 40 million euros at FC Bayern are devaluations for Joshua Kimmich (28), Leroy Sané (27), João Cancelo (29), Lucas Hernández (27), Thomas Müller (33) and in particular Leon Goretzka (28) and Sadio Mané (31).
Goretzka and Mané each fell by EUR 20m to EUR 45m and EUR 25m, respectively, and thus to their lowest market values since spring 2020 and summer 2016 respectively take a lot of criticism from the fans at the DFB. Especially in interaction with Kimmich, he misses the dominance of the triple times and will probably have to fight for his place in the starting XI in the new season,” says Bundesliga market value administrator Tobias Kröger about the German national player.
Mané, who came from Liverpool as a new attacking star with many advance praises, has almost completely disappointed despite a decent tally of twelve goals and six assists in 38 competitive games – especially in the second half of the season. The background noise with the suspension in April did the rest. Mané last had a market value of less than 30 million euros in spring 2016 before moving from Southampton to Anfield Road. A year ago, Africa’s Footballer of the Year 2022 was worth 70 million euros. Since then, Mané has been one of the players whose market value has fallen the most in the world.
After summer 2022, then coming from 85 million, Kimmich’s devaluation to 75 million euros is the second by 5 million euros in a row. On the one hand, this has to do with the age of the midfielder and, on the other hand, with the current debate. “After a mixed season at Bayern Munich, Kimmich is also part of the discussion about what midfield will look like in the future. In the national team, he can also not build on the achievements from the club and is now being criticized here too,” says market value administrator Julius Weißenstein (Savarez03).
Pavard the only market value winner at Bayern Munich – Müller falls again
The only upgrade at Bayern is Pavard, who was almost consistently convincing on the defensive both inside and on the right, thus continuing the trend from the winter update. Due to his contract situation – which ends in 2024 – the defender is still associated with numerous top clubs, including Real Madrid, Manchester United, Inter Milan and FC Barcelona.
Pavard has already held a value of 40 million euros twice: in the summer of 2018 at VfB Stuttgart, when he had just become world champion, and in the summer of 2020 in the service of Munich. “For me, Pavard is the secret winner in Bayern’s defense and, in my opinion, has clearly demonstrated how well Bayern IV works without Upamecano. For me, he was the most stable IV throughout the season, even if he was replaced by de Ligt in the second half of the season – but still an important building block for the championship,” even a fan of the rival from Dortmund wrote “CKBVB” in the market value analysis.

Meanwhile, Müller received a devaluation of 6 million to 12 million euros – his lowest market value since before the 2010 World Cup, which represented the international breakthrough for the offensive all-rounder. In the case of the soon to be 34-year-old, the minus is mainly due to age, but Thomas Tuchel no longer fully relied on Müller at the end of the season, who only came off the bench in important games such as the Champions League quarter-finals against Manchester City.
This is how the Transfermarkt market values work
The Transfermarkt market values are created taking into account various pricing models and a strong involvement of the Transfermarkt community, which deals with the values in detailed discussions. The transfer market market values are not to be equated with the transfer fees actually paid.
The goal is not to predict a price, but an expected value. When determining the market value, both individual transfer modalities and situational framework conditions are relevant to a certain extent. Examples of this are listed here. Transfermarkt does not use an algorithm (for detailed market value definition).
