As France is third on that list behind Brazil (1,460,000,000) with 1,340,000,000 euros, the conclusion is clearly drawn why this is the most valuable match. According to the same scientific analysis, the most valuable football player not only in both national teams but also on the planet is Jude Bellingham with an impressive 202 million euros. But, it is already being announced that his total value could jump to as much as 250 million after the end of the World Cup! Second on that list is Vinicius Junior from Brazil, who is valued at 201,000,000, while Kylian Mbappe is fourth with a current 185,000,000 euros!What will Gareth Southgate tell his England players in the moments before playing France?The answer: nothing.This is why…#BBCWorldCup #BBCFootball pic.twitter.com/vxymICddYF— BBC Sport (@BBCSport) December 10, 2022 Furthermore, Bellingham’s value is actually 13.5 per cent of the total cost of the complete England national team. Almost side by side with the Dortmund teenager is Manchester City’s ‘pearl’ Phil Foden with 200 million euros and he is third on the list of the most valuable footballers according to CIES.

Again, there is Aurelien Tchouameni with 100 million, Eduardo Kamavinga with 90,000,000, and the trio of Dembele – Coman – Saliba with 70 million each.Bellingham doesn’t look 19, his game intelligence is unbelievable, claims YayaThe specialized portal Transfermarkt evaluates player prices according to a different formula than CIES and is based on the current, not overall, value, which includes, among other things, the potential for further progress…According to them, Kylian Mbappe is ahead of everyone with 160 million euros and he is one of only three players from both teams whose price is in nine figures. Along with the quick-footed Frenchman are Phil Foden with 110,000,000 and Jude Bellingham with 100 million euros.Three Lions are happy to have Heem backIf the most valuable combined line-up of the two giants were to be drawn, a total of almost 900,000,000 euros would be reached for the potential starting eleven! England would have one more player in the lineup, and looking at the 4-4-2 formation it would look like this. In goal is Aaron Ramsdale at 30 million euros, Trent Alexander Arnold is priced at 70, million, the stopper tandem is Kunde and Saliba at 60 and 50, million euros respectively, while on the left is Theo Hernandez with 55 million euros. On the right is Bukayo Saka at 90 million, while in the heart of midfield are Aurelien Tchouameni at 80 million and Jude Bellingham at 100 million. Well, now, Transfermarkt puts Raheem Sterling on the left, but since Phil Foden in Manchester City often plays on that side, we put him in that position and he brings another 110 million euros to the total price of the team.##NAJAVA_MECA_6877797##There is not much dilemma in the attack, since along with Kylian Mbappe, there is also Harry Kane, who is valued at 90 million. Arsenal has the most representatives, as many as three, while six players come from the Premier League, logically. When the line is underlined the total value of the set is 895,000,000 European banknotes!
