Market value winners: Only Grealish ahead of Barça's Gavi - 3 Premier League players in top XI

After the first quarter of the season, the market value updates have been completed in Europe's top leagues. The most significant jump forward was made by this summer's most expensive transfer: Jack Grealish. With the market values up to date, it is time to take stock of the biggest winners and losers. 

Manchester City paid €117 million for the 25-year-old midfielder, who has since become an essential player in Pep Guardiola's starting XI. As a result, the previous market value of €65 million has been significantly updated to now €100 million. No other player made a bigger jump than Grealish. The midfielder increased his market value by €35 million to €100 million, making him the fourth most valuable player globally. 

Gavi is ranked just behind Grealish in second place. Just five weeks passed between the 17-year-old making his debut for Barcelona and the Spanish national team. The midfielder has quickly become an essential player for the Catalans. Consequently, his first market value was significant: €25 million. Gavi is now ranked on the same level as former world star Eden Hazard.  

Grealish and Gavi are part of the top XI of the biggest market value winners. Half of the team is either German or plays in the Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund have two players in Erling Haaland (+€20m to €150m) and Jude Bellingham (+€15m to €70m), the same can be said about Bayer Leverkusen, who have Florian Wirtz (+€20m to €65m) and Odilon Kossounou (+€10m to €23m) in the starting XI. Red Bull Salzburg star and German national team player Karim Adeyemi (+€10m to €20m) is also in the starting XI. The only Premier League club with two players is Arsenal. Ben White (+€12m to €40m) and Aaron Ramsdale (+€8m to €20m) make the team. 

Market value losers: Kostic at the top - Followed by Kroos and Werner

But Bundesliga players were also among the biggest losers. Filip Kostic saw his market value reduce by €15 million after he tried to force away a move from Eintracht Frankfurt. Kostic shares first place with Hazard; his drop in market value was the biggest worldwide and sees him now ranked behind his brother Thorgan Hazard.

Seventeen players saw their market value drop by double digits. Among them Toni Kroos (-€10m to €30m), Timo Werner (-€10m to €55m), Kingsley Coman (-€10m to €55m) and Marcel Sabitzer (-€10m to €32m).
