LIVERPOOL SQUAD VALUE SECOND-HIGHEST IN EUROPE , SPURS LEAPFROG MAN UTD AND REAL MADRID
LIVERPOOL have seen their squad value estimation soar after a superb 2018/19 campaign that included victory in the Champions League.
The Reds impressed both domestically and in Europe last season, coming within a point of the Premier League title before beating Tottenham in the Champions League final.
Clever summer recruitment and sensible sales has seen the Liverpool squad rapidly gain value over the past 12 months while impressive on-field performances have only increased the worth of individual players.
The departure of Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona for £140m has proved to be a sound piece of business while acquiring Alisson for £60m and Virgil van Dijk for £75m are absolute bargains.
And Jurgen Klopp’s roster of stars is now estimated to be worth a staggering £1bn by Transfermarkt.com, putting the Reds second in Europe, and subsequently the world, when teams are ranked by highest squad value.
Tottenham have also seen their stock rise despite defeat in the Champions League final, with a lack of investment in the playing squad off-set by excellent displays on the pitch.
The Spurs squad has leapfrogged ahead of Real Madrid in terms of value, while they also rank above Manchester United following the Red Devil’s dismal campaign.
United’s collection of big-money stars is only valued at £706.28m, putting them ninth in the overall table.
Borussia Dortmund and Napoli have risen up the rankings at the expense of Inter Milan and rivals AC while Ajax and Everton have also increased in value, but which clubs complete the top 20?
Borussia Dortmund are in the middle of a rebuilding process.
