How much do you think some legends of the game would be worth in today's inflated market?

by Blue Barrett Wed May 23, 2012 6:23 pm

I personally think a 26-31 year old Drogba is worth somewhere between £50M-£60M in today's market. A prime Zidane would be worth £120M+ imo.

by Raptorgunner Wed May 23, 2012 6:26 pm

Zidane is still worth around 50m. :coffee:

All depends (in a hypothetical sense) if said legends could replicate their performances of yesteryear in this current climate. And Chelsea signed a prime Drogba at the age of 27 so that one is a bit strange to be honest...

how much is messi worth? hmm

and a completely unrelated question-

how much is maradona worth?

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed May 23, 2012 6:48 pm

If Carroll is 35m then prime Shearer is probably about 950m.

I wouldn't blame Barca if they slapped a £250M price tage on Messi.

Alex Ferguson said on the radio that the late Giorgio Chinaglia would be worth 50-60 million pounds to day.

For starters, Fergie would NOT have acquired Schmeichel for 500K

Why not ? Bargain deals are still out there..... for instance we signed Ben Arfa for 2m.

Because even youngsters and semi unknown players are being priced in excess of 10 million squid in 2012. United bought big Pete off the back of a decent international campaign

Wait and see what insane prices some lunatics spout after Euro 2012

I guess that's why many BL clubs already got quite some signing fixed and done by now. ^^

Indeed RWO, i did struggle to realise at first why BL clubs were shopping so early as it seemed rather unusual but its starting to become clear....

The Euros will inflate players who are playing in that competition to ridiculous levels so its best to either get everything done before hand or look in a totally different direction.

by REWB Wed May 23, 2012 9:19 pm

many players of the old generation are extremely overrated, so we would never know how much they would be worth if they were to play today.

by billionmillion Wed May 23, 2012 9:24 pm

Pele 30-40 million

Cristiano would be worth more than R9? I don't think so

Don't forget who put Nike Football on the map.. R9 has tons of marketing value, and he's 10x better on the pitch
