Neymar and six more Brazilian players are among the 10 most valuable South Americans who play in Europe’s top leagues! The website “Football Benchmark” released this Tuesday, 26, a study on these athletes, and some numbers may end up surprising us when we talk about the first placed on this list, and especially those who were left out.
Lionel Messielected seven times winner of the Ballon d’Or, was absent from this ranking after having lived his first year with the shirt of the PSG after the bombastic departure of barcelona. Already Neymardespite having been included in the top 10, was surprised by the fact that it was only in the 10th position, worth 63.9 million euros, something around R$ 346.3 million.
On the other hand, Brazilian football managed to do very well in this regard, as of the 92 athletes distributed among the clubs in the five major competitions of the season, they are dominating the Top 10, with six players in all. Vini Jr. it leads the list, with a market value of 135.8 million euros, around R$ 736 million.
Thus, in addition to Neymar and Vini Jr., the other Brazilians who are in the Top 10 are: Eder Militão in 5th place, marquinhos in 6th place, little raphinha in 7th and Gabriel Jesus in 8°. In addition to them, the list also includes the Argentine Lautaro Martínez in 2nd place, the Colombian Luis Diaz in 3rd place and the Uruguayans Darwin Nunez in 4th place and Federico Valverde in 9th place.
Leaving aside talking about individual players themselves, and going to talk about clubs, what adds up to the highest market value with South American athletes in these competitions is the Real Madridwhich has six athletes in this sense, achieving a total value of 402.2 million euros, something around R$ 2.2 billion.
