Neymar and Mbappé -
VS Press / SIPA
The algorithm of the Football Observatory, CIES, is ruthless.
If a player ages, plays less well or is at the end of their contract, their market value inevitably drops.
At this little game of market value, Kylian Mbappé fell off the world podium.
It is now Marcus Rashford who dominates the "game".
The Manchester United striker is valued at 166 million euros, 16 more than the French international Paris Saint-Germain.
Between the two, we find Erling Haaland, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Bruno Fernandes.

Far, very far, very, very, very far behind, we find Neymar.
The Brazilian's market value is estimated at just € 32million by CIES due to his numerous injuries and the near end of his contract with PSG.
He is even cheaper than Messi (54 M) and Cristiano Ronaldo (47 M), yet aged 33 and 35.
