Swiss Football Observatory CIES has published a list of the 100 most expensive football players at the end of the club season 2023/24 and just before the start of Euro 2024, where a player from Slovenia also made it to the list. Benjamin Šeško, who had an outstanding debut year wearing the jersey of RB Leipzig, climbed to 28th place on the list, with a market value of as much as €103.6 million. Benjamin Šeško is also the only Slovenian on this CIES ranking.
“The statistical model of the CIES Football Observatory, based on approximately 5,500 paid transfers, explains more than 85% of the differences in club payments based on criteria such as age, contract duration, minutes played, player’s share in the starting lineup, sports level of played matches, results, economic strength of the player’s club and leagues, potential buyers, inflation rate, etc.” – CIES described the background behind compiling the aforementioned list, which was topped by Jude Bellingham.
The footballer from the Spanish giant Real Madrid, who will also compete in Euro 2024 against the squad of Slovenian coach Matjaž Kek, is valued at a staggering €280.4 million, with Norwegian Erling Haaland from Manchester City (€255.3 million) and Brazilian Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid, €240.8 million) making it to the “podium.”
