Barcelona star Neymar emerges as the most valuable player with a total worth of £185 million; Cristiano Ronaldo nowhere in top 5

In a recent study by the CIES Football Observatory, Brazilian star midfielder Neymar has come out top of the list of most valuable players, ahead of teammate Lionel Messi and Tottenham duo Kane and Alli.

He has been estimated to be worth £185 million. The second place was Dele Alli with £137 million and Harry Kane, £135 million. Messi came in fourth at £134 million.

When Cristiano Ronaldo is not in the top 5, it seems more like the study is based on erroneous inputs.
