Top 5 Most Valuable Football Squads in the World (2022)
2493
Now that the dust has settled in 2022, it’s time to examine the most valuable football squads in the world right now. Let’s see who comes out on top.
Surprisingly, European powerhouses like Manchester United, Real Madrid and Barcelona don’t feature in the top five. Three of the top five are English, with clubs from Germany and France completing the list.
Here are the top five most valuable football squads in 2022.
5. Bayern Munich (€817.75m)
You probably won’t be surprised to see Bayern Munich on this list. The German giants have won each of the previous nine Bundesliga titles and have also won the Champions League twice in the past decade, meaning they can attract the best players on the planet.
Joshua Kimmich (€85m) is Bayern’s most valuable player, while Leon Goretzka, Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sane and Alphonso Davies are all valued at €70m. Even at the age of 33, Robert Lewandowski boasts a market value of €50m.
4. Chelsea (€883.00m)
Chelsea may have the fourth-most valuable squad in world football, but they only ranked third among English clubs. That’s because Liverpool and Manchester City’s squads are both valued higher than Chelsea’s.
Only two players on the planet have a higher market value than Romelu Lukaku (€100m). The Blues also have young stars such as Mason Mount (€75m), Kai Havertz (€70m) and Reece James (€55m) in their ranks.
3. Liverpool (€889.90m)
Given that Liverpool have eight players valued at €50m or more, it is hardly surprising that they find themselves third on this list. Mohamed Salah (€100m) makes up a large portion of the overall squad value, along with Sadio Mane (€80m) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (€80m).
Jurgen Klopp’s side won the Champions League in 2019 before securing the Premier League title the following season. Those achievements have enabled them to enhance their squad over the past few years.
2. Paris Saint-Germain (€909.55m)
Valued at €160m, Kylian Mbappe is officially the most valuable player in world football. Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland (€150m) is the only other player with a market value of more than €100m.
But Paris Saint-Germain are not a one-man team. Superstars like Neymar (€90m), Marquinhos (€75), Achraf Hakimi (€70m), Gianluigi Donnarumma (€65m) and Lionel Messi (€60m) make PSG the second-most valuable squad on the planet.
1. Manchester City (€991.30m)
Remarkably, no fewer than ten Manchester City players are valued at €50m or more. With that in mind, it is no wonder than Pep Guardiola has the luxury of picking his starting XI from the most valuable squad in world football.
Kevin De Bruyne (€90m) has the highest market value, followed by Raheem Sterling (€85m), Phil Foden (€85m) and Jack Grealish (€80). Portuguese trio Bernardo Silva (€75m), Ruben Dias (€75m) and Joao Cancelo (€60) boast a combined market value of €210m.
