Güler, Olise & Co - Top 100 players with biggest market value increases this season
Transfermarkt's market values are famed across the world and recognised by players, clubs and media organisations. Last week, Ligue 1 received its March intermediary update on Friday, which signalled the final top five league to be adjusted. The Bundesliga, English Premier League, Ligue 1, LaLiga and Serie A have now all received their penultimate update of the season.
The 2025/26 campaign has entered the final stages ahead of the World Cup, but there’s still plenty to play for. Arsenal, Bayern Munich, PSG, Inter Milan and Barcelona are all expected to be crowned champions in their retrospective league but there are some thrilling ties in the Champions League and Europa League quarter-finals. After the March updates, we’ve now analysed which players have gained the biggest market value increases this season from top five league clubs - we've analysed the top ten, but you can view the full list below!
Biggest market value winners 2025/26
No player has received a more substantial market value rise this season than Yan Diomande. The Ivory Coast international was valued at just €1.5 million when he moved to RB Leipzig from Leganes in the summer. Diomande was a relatively unknown talent but he exploded in Germany to attract interest from the biggest clubs in Europe and his market value has enjoyed a stratospheric rise by €73.5m to his current valuation of €75m. As the graphic below illustrates, Lennart Karl ranks second with the Bayern Munich starlet’s valuation rising by €58.5m to €60m.
Fermín López ranks third with his market value doubling to €100m with the Barcelona starlet registering 28 goal contributions. Three of the top four players ply their trade in the Bundesliga with Hamburg’s Luka Vušković - on-loan from Tottenham - increasing by €48m - six Bundesliga players make the top ten. Real Madrid’s Arda Güler ranks sixth, while Antoine Semenyo and Nick Woltemade are the only two Premier League players.
