Update in Prva League
©IMAGO
In the Prva Liga market value update, the most valuable player is the biggest loser. Svit Seslar moved from Turkish first division club Eyüpspor back to league leaders NK Celje in the winter. Since then, the Slovenian international has scored four goals in five league games. However, its market value has fallen by 300,000 euros and is now 2.2 million euros. The reason for this is his transfer to a weaker league. Nevertheless, the 24-year-old remains the most valuable player in the Slovenian football upper house. Óscar Zambrano (NK Maribor) has the second highest market value with an unchanged 1.5 million euros.
The two biggest winners from the update are players who receive a starting market value. Bassirou N’Diaye moved from France from AS Cannes to FC Koper in the winter and after three goals in five games, his value rises to 100,000 euros. Kenan Kurtovic has the same assessment. The 19-year-old striker moved from the Celje youth team to NS Mura in the summer. After an adjustment period, he was able to earn a regular place and scored two goals in seven games.
With the former Hertha youngster Christalino Atemona (NK Bravo) and the ex-Düsseldorfer Florian Hartherz (FC Koper), two German legionnaires are also represented in the Prva Liga, but the market value of both remains unchanged at 300,000 and 200,000 euros respectively.
This is how transfer market market values work
The transfer market market values are created taking into account various pricing models as well as a strong involvement of the transfer market community, which deals with the values in detailed discussions. The transfer market market values cannot generally be equated with the transfer fees actually paid.
The goal is not to predict a price, but rather an expected value. When determining the market value, both individual transfer modalities and situational conditions are relevant to a certain extent. Examples of this are listed here. Transfermarkt does not use an algorithm (for detailed market value definition).
