Next come Raphaël Onyedika and Andreas Skov Olsen with an estimated value of €16 million. The latter, inconsistent for several months, nevertheless recorded a very big loss. The one who was the highest rated player in our championship during the last update saw his value drop by €2 million.
The first Belgian is Anderlecht’s Mario Stroeykens, fifth in this honorary ranking, with a market value of €14 million. Author of a thunderous start to the season, the 20-year-old player has made enormous progress (+ €4 million). Among the tops, we can also cite his teammate Kasper Dolberg with a value of €13 million, an increase of €2 million, but especially Bruges’ Ardon Jashari who went from €6 to €11 million (+€5 million) , the biggest increase for a Pro League player.

The best goalkeeper… is on the bench
In the top 10 players with the greatest value in the Pro League, we also note the presence of Westerlo defender Luka Vuskovic. Loaned by Hajduk Split, the future defector from Tottenham has been a starter since the start of the season in the Campinois defense at just 17 years old. The Croatian would thus be one of the most highly valued U17s in the world, with an estimated value of €10 million.
If we analyze certain positions in more detail, we realize that three of the four “most expensive” goalkeepers in the country… do not play for their club. It is the young Mike Penders, bought by Chelsea but loaned to Genk where he is on the bench, who is the best-valued goalkeeper with a market value of €5 million, or 500,000 euros more than Senne Lammens, the goalkeeper from Antwerp. Then come Warleson (Cercle Bruges > €4 million), Jean Butez (Antwerp > €4 million) and Tobe Leysen (OHL > €3.5 million).
Resale of players purchased over the past ten years: Club Brugge, Ghent, Genk and the Union have earned more than 100 million euros!
Bruges and Genk at the top, the Union in the trough
At the collective level, Club Brugge is obviously the team with the greatest market value, going from €149.6 to €165.3 million, helped by the Champions League showcase. Financially comfortable, the people of Bruges will be able to raise the stakes during the next transfer windows and break the bank again. Genk comes in second place in this ranking and has also seen good growth in recent months, going from €95.3 to €109.4 million.
In the other direction, Union Saint-Gilloise has seen its overall value drop in recent months after a more complicated start to the season. The market value of all the players on the Saint-Gilloise team therefore increases from €82 to €79.3 million (a drop of €2.7 million). It is the Japanese Koki Machida who has the greatest value on the unionist side (€10 million), ahead of Noah Sadiki (€8 million).
At Standard, the best valued players are Andi Zeqiri (on loan from Genk) and Marlon Fossey, both valued at €4 million. At Charleroi, the other Walloon elite club, Adem Zarbre is valued at €5 million.
