💸New valuations: Lamine and Haaland smash the 200 million record | OneFootball

Following the conclusion of the longest World Cup in history, the Transfermarkt platform released its traditional market value update. The tournament ended with Spain being crowned champions over Argentina in extra time, thanks to Ferran Torres’ decisive goal. In this special edition, the review only included value increases to reward the competition’s most outstanding performers.

A new all-time high in world football

Spanish winger Lamine Yamal and Norwegian striker Erling Haaland set an unprecedented milestone by becoming the first players to break the 200 million euro barrier, with both reaching a market value of €220m. Yamal reaffirmed his status as the world’s top talent after adding a World Cup title to his résumé at just 19 years old. Haaland, meanwhile, led Norway to the quarter-finals with an outstanding return of seven goals in five matches.

Completing the podium is Kylian Mbappé, who returned to €200m after becoming the all-time top scorer in World Cup history, surpassing Lionel Messi and winning his second consecutive Golden Boot.

New names in the 100 million club

The list of players valued at nine figures welcomed four new members, bringing the total to 26 players. Among the most notable additions are Spain’s Pau Cubarsí (+20 to €100m), who won the tournament’s Best Young Player award, and Argentina’s Enzo Fernández (+10 to €100m).

Meanwhile, big-money moves to the Premier League boosted the market values of British players Elliot Anderson (€110m) and Morgan Rogers (€110m).
