The most expensive football players of 2023

Most football seasons are coming to an end. Therefore, the line in Mostbet UZ online becomes a little narrower for several months. But this does not mean that nothing happens in the clubs. While the players are on vacation, scouts and other football functionaries come to the fore. After all, the summer transfer window started on June 1st.

In 2023, many teams will try to freshen up the composition or even radically rebuild. Top teams have made money again, recovering from the pandemic. Therefore, a series of high-profile transitions is expected.

But in this article, we will pay attention to the most expensive football players as of June 2023. Some of these players may change their club registration this summer. Let’s take a look at which transfers could be the biggest this summer.

Top 10 most expensive football players

When compiling the list of the most expensive players, we were guided by the price tags that the authoritative website Transfermarkt puts up. As of June 2023, the top 10 looks like this:

• Kylian Mbappe
• Erling Holland
• Jude Bellingham
• Vinicius Junior
• Jamal Musiala
• Bukayo Saka
• Phil Foden
• Pedri
• Victor Osimhen
• Federico Valverde

All these players are very promising. The maximum age in this top 10 is 24 years old (Osimhen, Valverde and Mbappe), and the youngest player is Jude Bellingham, who is only 19 years old.

Kylian Mbappe

Most of all, the possible transfer of the most expensive footballer at the moment, Kylian Mbappe, is of interest. The striker himself has repeatedly confirmed that he wants to change the club. The transfer did not happen last summer. Therefore, it was assumed that the player would still leave PSG in the winter transfer window. But the phenomenal performance at the World Cup has significantly increased the already high price tag of Mbappe, which has so far cooled the ardor of top clubs a little.

Kylian’s contract with the Parisians runs until 2025. Therefore, PSG still has time and the club does not really want to part with the team leader. Mbappe himself has repeatedly admitted that he would like to continue his career at Real Madrid. But PSG are ready to let the player go to any club, but not to the “creamy” ones. In addition, the transfer value of the striker is estimated at 170 million euros.

All of these factors greatly complicate the prospects for Mbappe’s transition in 2023. But in 2024, the Parisians will have to make concessions to the player and, perhaps, let him go even to Real Madrid. After all, if Kylian remains in the team until 2025, there is a risk that the striker will leave as a free agent, and the club will not receive any compensation for this.

Jude Bellingham

The second most high-profile event could be the transfer of Jude Bellingham. The 19-year-old English midfielder is currently a player for Borussia Dortmund, who nearly broke Bayern’s hegemony in the Bundesliga. The player became the brightest central midfielder in the German championship. The football player also performed well at the World Cup. Therefore, the interest from the top clubs in this player is not surprising.

Bellingham’s transfer to Real Madrid is considered the most likely. As stated, the teams have already reached a preliminary agreement. The Creamy are ready to pay 103 million euros for the midfielder, as well as an additional 30 million euros in bonuses. At the same time, the transfer cost of the Englishman is estimated at 120 million euros. And Borussia D. in 2020 paid Birmingham only 25 million euros for the player.

Such a transfer is beneficial to both parties. Borussia Dortmund will make good profits and be able to sign several other promising players, while Real Madrid will get a boost in midfield in the form of a young and versatile midfielder.

Victor Osimhen

Victor Osimhen had a phenomenal season at Napoli, becoming the Serie A champion. The Nigerian became the most productive player in the championship, scoring 26 goals. Therefore, top clubs immediately showed interest in the striker, one of which is Manchester United.

Napoli say they do not want to part with the player. The transfer fee of the striker is estimated at 100 million euros. But the club agrees to consider proposals with a price tag of at least 150 million euros. And Osimhen himself is also not very eager for another team. According to him, only the offer of Manchester United can be interesting for him.

So now everything depends on the decision of the “Red Devils”. On the one hand, the Nigerian would be a great addition to Rashford. But will the Mancunians agree to such a high price tag, because you can look at options much cheaper.

Which of the top 10 can change clubs?

The high cost of players, as well as expensive contracts, may discourage the purchase of these players. Many top clubs are trying to find cheaper replacements for problematic positions. But, nevertheless, some players from the top list may change their club registration this summer.
