Kone overtakes Barella to become Serie A’s most expensive midfielder

The season has started off on the right foot for Roma, who are still undefeated in their first six league and Champions League matches.

Among the key players is undoubtedly French midfielder Manu Koné, who scored a brace in the last match, a 2-2 draw against Inter.

According to Transfermarkt, this great start has allowed the Giallorossi number 17 to increase his market value, which has increased by a good €10 million, going from €50 million to €60 million, overtaking Barella, who is currently stuck in second place in the standings.

Completing the podium is another Inter midfielder, Sučić, with a value of €45 million.
