Victor Osimhen becomes world most valuable African footballer
Victor Osimhen, the Super Eagles and Napoli forward, has claimed the title of the most valuable African football player globally.
In recognition of his exceptional skills and market value, Osimhen has shown his great impact as a prominent striker not only in Nigeria for the Super Eagles but also in Serie A for Napoli.
The CIES Football Observatory, utilizing its proprietary statistical model, has included Osimhen in its prestigious ranking of the top 100 most valuable footballers in the world presently, confirming his status as an exceptional player.
Osimhen, who emerged as a Naples legend after his remarkable contribution led the team to their long-awaited Serie A championship after 33 years, carries an impressive price tag of €77.3 million.
This valuation places the 24-year-old in the 40th position globally, elevating him as the top-ranked African player within the esteemed top 100 list.
Surpassing the valuation of €61.2 million placed on Liverpool’s Egyptian superstar, Mohamed Salah, Osimhen solidifies his position as the leading African talent in terms of market worth.
Among the names of African players featured in the ranking, Achraf Hakimi from Morocco and Mohammed Kudus from Ghana hold respective valuations of €53.7 million and €53.5 million.
Meanwhile, Erling Haaland of Manchester City, who played a pivotal role in his team’s triumph in the English Premier League, claims the coveted title of the most valuable footballer in this present era, primarily based on transfer values.
Haaland’s exceptional performance on the field has earned him an astounding estimated worth of €245.5 million.
