Lamine Yamal has been named the most valuable Under-21 player in the world, but he is not the only young talent making headlines. Kenan Yildiz of Juventus has also secured his place among the top ten most expensive young players globally.
A recent study conducted by CIES, the Football Observatory, has provided insights into the current valuations of football’s brightest young stars. Yamal, a rising star at Barcelona, leads the rankings, with three other players surpassing the €100 million valuation mark.
Kenan Yildiz stands out as the sole representative from Serie A in this prestigious top ten list. Juventus are proud to have him recognized among the elite young talents, while other clubs in Italy, including Inter, Milan, Napoli, Roma, and Lazio, did not feature any players in the top 100.
