5. Florian Wirtz – $77m
The Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder is currently out injured, but had a remarkable campaign last season. He has also broken into Hansi Flick’s German national team squad, and kicks off the list of the top five most valuable U19 players.
4. Gavi – $77m
Gavi has been a major relevation for Barcelona, and has established himself as a regular in the starting line-up. He recently renewed his contract with the club, and has a $1 billion release clause.
3. Jamal Musiala – $88m
Musiala has been in sensational form, and is starting to add an end product to his impressive performances. In seven games, he already has five goals and three assists and is expected to be a key figure in Bayern’s future.
2. Jude Bellingham – $99m
The Borussia Dortmund midfielder has been nothing short of brilliant, with the consistency of his performances now on show. He is the Bundesliga’s most valuable player, and is expected to move on to an elite club next summer.
1. Pedri – $99m
Last season’s Golden Boy award winner is at the top of the list, and for good reason. He became one of the youngest internationals for Spain, and had an amazing performance in the Euros. Now, he is pulling the strings for Barcelona’s midfield with maturity well beyond his years.
