In the most recent release by the CIES Football Observatory, Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Haaland and Manchester United star Marcus Rashford have been given the title of the most expensive players on the planet, with their market value being in the region of €150-€200 million. 

The CIES Football Observatory uses a separate set of formulas to determine the value of football players in the modern transfer market in a method that also helps them compare the individual values to that of the squad that they play for. 

While Rashford makes for 14.8% of the total squad value of the Red Devils, Haaland is a much bigger asset to Borussia Dortmund at 21.5% of the squad value. However, it can also be said that one would not need the observatory findings to note the importance of Haaland to Dortmund. 

Haaland recently became the youngest player to score 20 goals in the Champions League and is well on his way to becoming the youngest to score 25 goals as well, leaving the record previously set by Kylian Mbappe behind. 

Kylian Mbappe’s value is around £103-£130 million and is in the same bracket as Bukayo Saka of Arsenal. Atletico Madrid’s João Felix and Manchester City’s Phil Foden are also in the same transfer fee range and are all the most valuable players for their respective clubs. 

The next price bracket of £77-£103 million includes seven prolific players, which includes Harry Kane, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Timo Werner, Alphonso Davies, Frenkie de Jong, Matthijs De Ligt and Lautaro Martinez.
