Victor Osimhen is now the most valuable player in Serie A and fifth most expensive star in the world, according to the latest Transfer Markt valuations.
Osimhen’s a possible price tag is 120 Million Euros, which breaks the previous record of 110 Million Euros placed on Paulo Dybala in 2018.
The Super Eagles striker’s value soared by a hefty 20 Million Euros after his exploits this past season.
“The recent increase, which is the third this season, as well as the record, are the result of an excellent season by the best striker in Serie A,” Transfermarkt Area Manager Italy Jatin Dietl said.
“But it is also a reflection of the current transfer market because at the moment, we are seeing that Erling Haaland’s impact has created a strong market for top strikers, especially those with attributes that Osimhen is showing regularly: a strong will and mentality, the ability to be dynamic, physical and assertive as well as showing technical attributes at top speed.
“Those kinds of players will command significant transfer fees this summer. We are not just seeing that with Osimhen, who president De Laurentiis, despite interest from England, France, or recently from the Bundesliga, doesn’t want to sell.”
