Market value update: Jamal Musiala loses 20 million euros

The physical problems now also affect the market value. Jamal Musiala is the biggest loser in the latest update of the “Transfermarkt” portal. The star of FC Bayern and the German national team lost 20 million euros in market value and now has 80 million euros.

Musiala had a neurological dysfunction with temporary absences that became public before the start of the season. The 23-year-old had previously collapsed on the field in the friendly games against 1. FC Heidenheim and RB Leipzig. He had to leave the national team early last week for another reason. Musiala was injured during the warm-up before the game in the Netherlands (1-1), tearing a muscle fiber in his right thigh.

"Unfortunately, Jamal Musiala is feeling the effects of the past few months. Due to various health problems and the resulting fluctuations in performance, the German international player's market value has fallen by 20 million to 80 million euros," says Tobias Kröger, Market Value Lead at "Transfermarkt": "We continue to see sporadic brilliant performances that underline his extraordinary talent, but ultimately it is his lack of consistency and his current overall performance that prevent him from becoming a player 100 million range to remain.”

Two other players who are part of the extended circle of the national team are also among the top 5 biggest market value losers. Goalkeeper Noah Atubolu, who was now regularly appointed to the squad by Jürgen Klopp for the first time after being nominated by former national coach Julian Nagelsmann, lost seven million euros and now has 18 million euros. One possible reason: the failed move to the Premier League, which the 24-year-old was actually aiming for. In the end, Atubolu moved from SC Freiburg to Eintracht Frankfurt, but will not play in international competition this season.

In fourth place on the losers list behind Musiala, Kaishu Sano from Mainz 05 and Atubolu is Assan Ouédraogo from RB Leipzig, who is still worth 22 million euros (previously 28 million euros). The World Cup driver is missing from Klopp's current squad due to injury. Ouédraogo suffered a capsule injury in his right shoulder in the game against Hamburger SV (5-0), had to undergo surgery and was out for a long time.

The biggest winner in the ranking is Antonio Nusa from RB Leipzig. He gains 13 million euros and now has a market value of 45 million euros. This is followed by Derry Scherhant (SC Freiburg/7.5 to 20 million euros) and then seven players who each gain ten million euros in market value - including Michael Olise (FC Bayern/170 to 180 million euros) and Felix Nmecha (Borussia Dortmund/55 to 65 million euros).
