Similarly, he now appears as the top-ranked player in terms of market value in the right-wing position, where he is tied for first place with Phil Foden. Additionally, among players born in 2007, he surpasses his closest pursuer by a significant margin, one of the players who was once sought after by Barcelona, Estêvão Willian, who occupies the second position in this ranking with a market value of €40 million.
With the impressive upward trajectory that Lamine Yamal is showing, who currently has five goals and five assists in the 2024/25 season, it would not be surprising if his market value continues to increase rapidly and he ends up becoming the most valuable player on this platform. This would support a value that he consistently demonstrates on the field with brilliant performances, which excites Barça fans and followers of the Spanish national team to have such a promising talent among their ranks.
