Eriksen is the most valuable player in Serie A
Christian Eriksen quickly surpassed Dybala and Ronaldo to take the number one spot, after switching from Tottenham to Inter.
According to Transfermarkt transfer pricing website, Eriksen is currently worth $ 105.5 million. This is the highest level for a player in Serie A today, more than 100 million of Dybala (Juventus) and 94 million of Lautaro Martinez (Inter).
Matthijs De Ligt, Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus), Kalidou Koulibaly (Napoli) and Romelu Lukaku (Inter) came in fourth with 88 million. Followed by Sergej Milinkovic-Savic (Lazio), Miralem Pjanic (Juventus) came in eighth place with 82 million, and Marcelo Brozovic (Inter) ranked tenth with 70 million.
Transfermarkt’s calculation of transfer value is based on age, style and future development potential. Accordingly, at a ripe age and at 27, Eriksen is one of the top players in the world. Ronaldo has a more outstanding performance, but is underestimated because he is about to turn 35.
Inter only cost about 22 million to buy Eriksen. Tottenham sold him for a much cheaper price than the value because there was only half a year left on contract. If waiting until the summer of 2020, the English club will have to leave Eriksen on a free transfer.
After arriving at Inter, Eriksen signed a four-and-a-half-year contract. The Danish midfielder receives the top salary in Serie A with about $416,000 per week.
The early purchase of Eriksen also proves Inter’s determination in the Serie A 2019-2020 race. In the Top 10 Serie A value players, Inter and Juventus all have four positions.
Juventus is leading Serie A with 51 points after 21 matches, three more than Inter. Lazio ranked third with 46 points, but played less than one match. The remaining 17 laps are expected to have more interesting developments with the three horse race.
After the Champions League final in early June, Eriksen sent a message to Tottenham that he wanted a “new challenge”. The Danish midfielder has played six seasons for the north London team and has only one year left to sign. This is the time Tottenham needs to sell before it is at risk of losing.
In six seasons at Tottenham, Eriksen has not won a title. The team twice reached the final, but lost in the 2014-2015 League Cup and the 2018-2019 Champions League.
In the opposite direction, Tottenham aimed Argentine midfielder Giovani Lo Celso of Real Betis as Eriksen’s replacement.
