Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has been recognized as the footballer with the highest estimated transfer value worldwide.
The English player made an immediate impact in La Liga after joining Real Madrid for £113 million from Borussia Dortmund last summer. He ended the league season with 19 goals and six assists.
At just 20 years old, Bellingham contributed to 35 goals across all competitions for Real Madrid. He aims to add more in his final game of the season, the Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on Saturday.
According to the CIES Football Observatory, Bellingham’s transfer value has more than doubled, now estimated at an astonishing £236 million (€280 million).
Bellingham is one of three Real Madrid players in the top 10 highest-valued players, with teammates Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo also in the top five.
