On players whose value increased the most during the World Cup.
Jude Bellingham is the most valuable asset in the transfer market
Before the World Cup, it was obvious that the current season would be Jude’s last at Borussia Dortmund. During the World Cup, there were many rumors around him about the interest of leading European clubs.
Jude held the World Cup in Qatar at a fairly high level, was one of the leaders of the England team. Thanks to this, the young midfielder’s transfer value has increased by 10 million euros in the last month.
According to various estimates, Borussia expects to lend a hand to an Englishman in the region of 130-150 million euros, which is a huge amount even for such mastodons as Manchester City, Real Madrid and Liverpool. According to the latest data, the title of favorite goes to Real Madrid, then to Liverpool. Both clubs are set up as seriously as possible.
Enzo Fernandez – Jude’s rival for the title of the main transfer lot of the summer
In the fight for the best young player world Cup all the same Jude Bellingham clubs appear. Except for a small difference. If City and Real Madrid consider Enzo an alternative to the Englishman, then Liverpool are ready to shell out more than 200 million euros for a real midfield crisis.
During his time at the World Cup, Enzo not only won a place in the first team that became the world champion, at the same time receiving the title of the best young player of the tournament, but also increased his transfer cost by 20 million euros. according to TransferMarkt.
Enzo arrived at Benfica last summer for €12m, which would cost a potential buyer at least €100m. The option to buy the Argentine is 120 million euros. A club that decides to sign a midfielder in the winter will have to pay him. In the summer, Benfica should be more accommodating.
Just the other day, information appeared that an unknown club made Benfica an offer to acquire Enzo, but the Portuguese team refused to sell the player for 100 million euros.
Joshko Guardiol is the most wanted centre-back right now
The Croatian defender received well-deserved compliments throughout the World Cup, as well as the match against Argentina.
Joshko delighted many fans, and his transfer fee increased by 15 million euros. Now it is estimated at 75 million euros, which makes the Croatian the most expensive defender in the world.
However, clubs wishing to acquire Yoshko are not giving up on this idea. City and Chelsea are willing to shell out €100-120m for a player who will close the position for years to come.
The new star of the Dutch national team – Cody Gakpo
Cody Gakpo unexpectedly for many became the main star of the Netherlands at the last World Cup. Captain PSV continued impressive performances this season, not noticing the difference between the domestic championship and the world championship.
For the tournament in Qatar, Cody scored goals in all group stage matches, participated in the formation of the national team’s attacks and was responsible for all set pieces, despite an impressive height of 189 cm. PSV.
The Dutch club is unlikely to keep its leader when giants like Manchester United are knocking for him. The Mancunians are now the favorites in the fight for the striker, but he is also on Liverpool’s lists. I expected that PSV he will ask about 60-65 million for his player.
The biggest jump in transfer value goes to Azzedine Unahi
The 22-year-old Angers midfielder has become one of the main discoveries of the last tournament. If Enzo Fernandez, Javier Alvarez and Sofyan Amrabat were known to the public, then Unahi was known only in very narrow circles.
And even Luis Enrique, against whose team Unahi played, did not know about the player before the match: “I was pleasantly surprised by the number 8 from Morocco, I don’t remember the name… He played great.”
The Moroccan represents the French Ligue 1 outsider and will gladly accept an offer from a bigger club. Barcelona and Leicester have already opened the hunt for him, so he’s in for a pretty impressive leap. About the same as the jump in his transfer fee, which increased up to 5 times! From 3 million euros to 15 million.
One obstacle could be a contract signed in the summer until 2026. There is no buy-out option in Unaha’s new deal, so Angers can set any price.
Kolo Randal could overshadow everyone in the final world Cupbut Martinez prevented
A few days before the start world Cup in Qatar, in the candidacy of the French national team due to the injury of Christopher Nkunku, a new name appeared – Colo Randal.
At the World Cup, the Eintracht Frankfurt striker acted as a substitute, often coming off the bench, finishing off opponents. Especially in the final stages of the playoffs. It happened to the Moroccan team and it almost happened to the Argentines in the final, if not for Emiliano Martinez.
During his time in Qatar, Randal spent just 183 minutes on the pitch, scoring one goal in the semi-final and earning a penalty in the final. For this, the Frenchman’s transfer fee increased by 8 million euros and reached 35 million euros. And over the past year, the price has increased more than 2 times.
Today, one of the main contenders for Randal is Bayern Munich. Given the quick and successful adaptation of the Frenchman to the Bundesliga, Bayern’s interest is indisputable: Randal has scored 5 goals and 9 assists in 14 games this season.
