10 most valuable players in world football

#1 Kylian Mbappe (PSG) - £224.1 million

Mbappe scored 33 times in Ligue 1 last season

It’s been a long time since we have seen a young player as talented as Kylian Mbappe is. The Frenchman made his first real breakthrough at 17, helping Monaco reach the Champions League semi-final. That impressive form was enough to earn him a big money move across France to PSG, who paid £160 million for his signature, making him the second most expensive player in football history, behind only his teammate, Neymar.

It is clear that he has the talents to go all the way to the top, and potentially take over at the top of the game when Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have retired. Last season, he scored 33 Ligue 1 goals in just 29 games, comfortably winning the Golden Boot. He has also shown that he is more than capable of transferring his skills to the international stage, playing a crucial part when France won the World Cup in 2018, as he became the first teenager since Pele to score in the final.
