What are our players worth ?

[Wolf in the sun]

I have seen it mentioned on a few threads so i thought i would bring up it as its own topic

Now remember children, this is opinions, there are no right and wrong answers, just opinions

Anyway here are my guesses..

SA - 20 mil +
DOHERTY - 5 mil
RAN - 50 mil - poss 70 mil next year
S BUENO - 10 mil
DAWSON - 5-10 mil
H BUENO - 10 mil, maybe more if played more regularly, really rated him until RAN came in the side full time
SEMEDO - 20 mil
KILMAN - 50 mil, but when you see Maguire go for 75 mil.....
TOTI - 20 mil
LEMINA JR - 25 mil
B TRAORE - 5-10 mil
J GOMES - 50 mil, could easily see 70 mil + next season
DOYLE - 15 mil
BELLEGARDE - 15 mil
HODGE - 5 mil
NETO - 70 mil (dont leave us !!)
HWANG - 25 mil - difficult one this one
CUNHA - 50 mil +, If he has a similar season next year - 100 mil ?
SARABIA - 10 mil
FRASER - 5-10 mil ?

Forgive me if i have missed anyone out, thoughts ?

 

[Cousins78]

I really think we are all undervaluing neto in todays market, other teams below us in the table are valuing their star players higher than we are so I would be ****ed if neto went for less than 90 mill. I know you can debate his injury record but olise is being valued higher and he is a bigger sick note

I think you're massively undervaluing Hwang there. Newcastle paid £70m for Isaak 18 months ago and his stats are comparable to Hwang. In fact Hwang is having a better season, even taking into account the time missed for the Asia Cup. I think £40-50m. That's what you'd expect to pay for a £10-15 goal a season Premier League forward

 

[Wolf in the sun]

I know you can debate his injury record but olise is being valued higher and he is a bigger sick note

i agree, i have said higher on other threads but alot of people say lower and bring up his goals

I think it might be higher just based on his assists

Yea, I get that we are realistic with what we would sell Neto for but why should we be? He’s on a decent length contract, we don’t NEED to sell in the summer so as long as he doesn’t kick off and force a move I don’t think we should entertain anything under £70/£75m regardless of what we think he is actually worth.

i said it was a hard one, he has had one break out season, if he has another season then that could rocket, unless people base it on him having this season and continuing

 

[casbul]

Hard one but I'd say these are generally accurate. Hwang is worth more in today's market, but I don't think he should be worth a huge amount more - I love him, but his form hasn't been sustained for long enough I'd say to justify.

How about a list titled "What would Chelsea or Man Utd pay?" then we could double or triple these figures

 

[Ginger Chimp]

Point of order!

What are they worth to us? Or what do we think others will be willing to pay?

Because those two sets of values will be completely different, in my humble opinion.

If we were offered some of those fees they’d be off in minutes.

Stick out ones being £50 million for Kilman, £5 million for hodge and £5-10 million for Fraser.

 

[cannockwolves]

Personally, I think you are way over valuing some of these players mate.

This is all subjective I know, but for a bit of fun I have corrected them for you

SA - £10m
DOHERTY - £2m
RAN - £30m (no one is paying £50m for a wingback)
S BUENO - £8m
DAWSON - £5m (he is 34 shortly)
H BUENO - £15m
SEMEDO - £5m (He only has 18 months on his contract?)
KILMAN - £40m (If West Ham or Chelsea offer anything over £40m he is gone)
TOTI - £20m (I actually think you are about right. He is very much under the radar, but is developing into a good player)
LEMINA JR - £10m (because of age)
B TRAORE - £5m
J GOMES - £40m (another one who will be gone for anything over £40m)
DOYLE - £15m (agreed, very good premier league player in the making)
BELLEGARDE - £10m (I am not sure he has the end product)
HODGE - £2m (Championship level, so who has the money?)
NETO - £60m (I think he will be gone for anything over £60m, few clubs will have the money)
HWANG - £25m (Agreed, he is on a long contract and has a good international profile)
CUNHA - £60m (I do think we could get £60m if he has a good end to the season)
SARABIA - £5m
FRASER - £2m (Too much of a gamble yet for most prem clubs, but could increased in value rapidly)

I think the market in the summer will be tighter than people think. Few clubs will have the cash and many will be looking to off load players. I think Neto will go, and in previous years a £70m price many have been achievable. But I think this summer prices will be supressed compared to previous summer windows. I honestly think he will end up at Arsenal for about £50m-£60m and may be some players.

I hope I am wrong but I could see Kilman and Neto going to bring in £100m. The rest of the loans are not going to generate much, may be £30m for Podence, Guedes, Hodge, and Cundle if we are lucky.

However, if spent well we could come out ok.

Wages may well be supressed and lots of clubs will need to move players on, and there may be out of contract bargains to the had.

 

[WolvesAndCows]

They are worth what somebody is prepared to pay for them. Doc is worth nothing, and there is 3 or 4 that you have overrated. Sa, Kilman, RAN, Hodge and Sarabia would be gone pretty quick if clubs offered those figures

as i say, all about opinions i just wanted other peoples view on it as its been "discussed" a lot on other threads

 

[Topcat]

There’s only a select number of clubs that could afford £40m plus for a player.
I suspect player valuations will come down by a fair bit over the next couple of seasons.
Look what’s happening to Forest due to holding out for the best deal and breaching the rules.
Think we were in hindsight very fortunate that City paid what they did for Nunes and bringing Tommy in, just hope we make it a permanent deal.

 

[Sedgley Gold N Black]

It's really difficult to judge now with FFP, as even those of us in the PL can't spend like they used to, it seems like there's almost certainly going to have to be a readjustment with transfer fees coming down.

If you went by old fees though;

Neto, £70-100m based on the number of clubs after him, his injury record might shorten the number of suitors though.
Cunha, £60m, he's been highly thought of for a while and this season really started to show more than just potential - we managed to flip Nunes for a similar profit despite having a much poorer season.
Kilman, £50m+, English, comfortable in possession and now our captain he's just what all the top sides were looking for.
RAN, £50m, another type of player a lot of the top sides were looking for, attacking full back and good in 1v1 against elite wingers
Joao Gomes, £35m+, again the type the top sides have taken a shine too, another year under his belt and that price would have probably doubled.
Toti Gomes, £25m, regularly in the Portuguese squad now just needs to break into the XI, pacey and reasonably good on the ball too.

After that though it's a fair bit more of a grey area imv with their ages, most clubs have moved away from paying big sums for people in their late 20s/30s and the championship has no money at all to buy up promising young players (Hodge would be £1-2m imv).

Due to their recent form Lemina, Semedo, Sa and Hwang could get a large offer £20-30m but the list of clubs who'd do that is rather small and might even be sideways (West Ham) but it's more likely to be below that from any smarter club looking at the previous few years.

Sarabia, Dawson and Doc would almost certainly be pretty nominal fees under £5m.

Doyle, Bellegarde, Traore and the Buenos still have a lot to show whether they can be £20m+ players and would probably only really fetch what we paid for the at best but likely less (Hugo excluded).

Hodge, Fraser and any of the youngsters yet to really rack up a good number of PL games and performances will be £1-3m.

[Mile End Wanderer]

SA - £25m new contract & starter
DOHERTY - not worth anything resale wise
RAN - 50m clubs sniffing
S BUENO - £10m same as signed for
DAWSON - not worth anything resale wise
H BUENO - £15m potential player
SEMEDO - 10m (He only has 18 months on his contract?)
KILMAN - £40m (Whoever wants him)
TOTI - £25m Portuguese international
LEMINA JR - £20m (late bloomer)
B TRAORE - £10m not sure
J GOMES - £60m potential
DOYLE - £20m potential
BELLEGARDE - £10m raw potential
HODGE - £1m (Championship level)
NETO - £70m bidding war
HWANG - £40m goal scorer
CUNHA - £70 Brazil international profit will be needed
SARABIA - £2m age not much reseale value
FRASER - £5m raw potential
GUEDES - 12m wants out
FABIO - 10m wants out
PODENCE - 10m BAD EGG
HOEVER - 1m BAD EGG
CUNDLE - 3m potential player
SASA - 8m fitness issues
CHEM - 500k
CHIQ - 5m potential
MOSQUERA - 5m potential
BOLLA - 1m
LEMBIKISA - 3m international high potential

So most of our money will come from a Neto or Ait-Nouri sale. Then the deadwood like Fabio, Guedes…..

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

I was flicking around You Tube last night and they did a list of the player values of all the Prem clubs. IIRC our total value was around 250 mil and I couldn't believe just how far down the list we were. We were only above Sheffield, Luton and Burnley in 17th. Shock horror!

 

[MickHolmesFanClub]

All of these are based on a sale on July 1st 2024:-

SA - £15m
DOHERTY - £500K
RAN - £30m
S BUENO - £10m
DAWSON - £2m
H BUENO - £10m
SEMEDO - £15m (will only have 12 months left on his contract)
KILMAN - £45m
TOTI - £15m
LEMINA - £20m
B TRAORE - £5m
J GOMES - £40m (potential for much higher however in the future)
DOYLE - £15m
BELLEGARDE - £10m
HODGE - £2m (plus add-ons as still has potential)
NETO - £65m (injury record may deter some clubs for bidding higher)
HWANG - £30m
CUNHA - £60m
SARABIA - £2m
FRASER - £1m (has potential but unproven so would have to include add-ons)
GUEDES - £15m
FABIO - £15m
PODENCE - £5m (only 12 months left on contract)
HOEVER - £1m
CUNDLE - £2m (same comments as Hodge and Fraser)
SASA - £10m
CHIQ - £3m
MOSQUERA - £5m (same comments as Hodge, Fraser, Cundle)
LEMBIKISA - £2m (same comments as Hodge, Fraser, Cundle, Mosquera)

I know Transfermarkt values aren't at all accurate, but they are all relative when comparing values.

If you look on Transfermarkt, like you say we are just above those 3 teams in terms of total market value.....



But the total market value doesn't account for the relatively small squad size. Along with West Ham and Man City, we have the smallest squad.

If you sort it by average market value, we are 12th, which is probably about right.....



Average player value of €13.76m, compared to a league average of €20.32m. We also have a relatively young average age, so those values are likely to overtake the likes of Fulham soon, as their average age is much higher, so values begin to fall, rather than rise.

Wages may well be supressed and lots of clubs will need to move players on, and there may be out of contract bargains to the had.

These seem quite realistic. I'd adjust a few:

Sa - £15-20m - he's a better keeper than some think.
RAN - £35-40m very hard to call but potentially more for the right team because he's still young and improving, can play as a wide forward
Lemina - £15-20m - even if a bit older.
Hwang - £35-40m - goalscorer, works hard, shown he can do it when played correctly.
Cunha - £40-45m - yes he's come good but no one is paying £60m (yet). He's too in and out of games and needs to continue his form to earn that. Continue until the end of the season then maybe. Partly down to market conditions though as in previous seasons I'd agree. Someone like Chelsea may have paid a fortune for him and Neto.

 

[WickedWolfie]

I have seen it mentioned on a few threads so i thought i would bring up it as its own topic

Now remember children, this is opinions, there are no right and wrong answers, just opinions

Anyway here are my guesses..

SA - 20 mil +
DOHERTY - 5 mil
RAN - 50 mil - poss 70 mil next year
S BUENO - 10 mil
DAWSON - 5-10 mil
H BUENO - 10 mil, maybe more if played more regularly, really rated him until RAN came in the side full time
SEMEDO - 20 mil
KILMAN - 50 mil, but when you see Maguire go for 75 mil.....
TOTI - 20 mil
LEMINA JR - 25 mil
B TRAORE - 5-10 mil
J GOMES - 50 mil, could easily see 70 mil + next season
DOYLE - 15 mil
BELLEGARDE - 15 mil
HODGE - 5 mil
NETO - 70 mil (dont leave us !!)
HWANG - 25 mil - difficult one this one
CUNHA - 50 mil +, If he has a similar season next year - 100 mil ?
SARABIA - 10 mil
FRASER - 5-10 mil ?

Forgive me if i have missed anyone out, thoughts ?

One l would definitely challenge is Doc. We signed him on a free and he's barely played.

Your figure for Semedo, who is a player of the season candidate, seems low as does that for Hwang.

 

[Aurum Lupus]

I have seen it mentioned on a few threads so i thought i would bring up it as its own topic

Now remember children, this is opinions, there are no right and wrong answers, just opinions

Anyway here are my guesses..

SA - 20 mil + - agreed
DOHERTY - 5 mil - not a chance, hes 32, will leave on a free, maybe a nominal £1m at most
RAN - 50 mil - poss 70 mil next year - Way over priced in current climate, £30/35m max
S BUENO - 10 mil - agreed
DAWSON - 5-10 mil - Not in a million years, hes 33! I doubt we'd even recover our £3m on him
H BUENO - 10 mil, maybe more if played more regularly, really rated him until RAN came in the side full time - This is the first one i think you're low on, i put him at £15m
SEMEDO - 20 mil - Probably about right
KILMAN - 50 mil, but when you see Maguire go for 75 mil..... - We asked for £40m, so you've got to think thats what he'd go for
TOTI - 20 mil - Left sided CB, I think we'd get more, but this isnt unfair
LEMINA JR - 25 mil - Agreed, especially with the clubs linked.
B TRAORE - 5-10 mil - Agreed maybe a bit higher
J GOMES - 50 mil, could easily see 70 mil + next season - Agreed
DOYLE - 15 mil - Far to low for an English player, £25m minimum if he keeps playing the way he is
BELLEGARDE - 15 mil - agreed
HODGE - 5 mil -agreed
NETO - 70 mil (dont leave us !!) - agreed
HWANG - 25 mil - difficult one this one - Strikers are a premium, especially ones that score, hes got to be £30-40m
CUNHA - 50 mil +, If he has a similar season next year - 100 mil ?
SARABIA - 10 mil - £5m max
FRASER - 5-10 mil ? Needs a loan/time on the pitch before estimating his value

Forgive me if i have missed anyone out, thoughts ?

I actually looked at all our buy prices and estimated what I believe the team would be worth now the other day.

I've added comments next to your above. I did try changing the colour but it was annoying me so gave up

I think you've massively over estimated both Doc and Dawson, we wont get anything for either with their ages. I suspect their contracts will be seen out and they will move on. Sarabia as well. There was a Spanish team interested, but they're never going to pay us more than we bought him for with his age.

The two other glaring differences are RAN and Hwang. RAN i cant see us getting much more than £30/35m with the current PSR issues clubs are having. This doesnt mean I dont rate him I absolutely do, but to go above this we need PSG and Man City fighting it out for him, then he could reach your estimate. However Hwang, if(and its a big one) he carries on his numbers for the rest of the season and gets close to 20 goals, theres not a chance he goes for less than £40m and I think that is underselling him in those circumstances.

 

[WolvesinBrum]

It's complicated! Below are just examples of categories and players.

There are potentially different prices for players who could be transferred within the Prem / Europe or Saudi League (we've seen some different valuations of Sa)

Players who need / want to leave because of age, being pretty near top of market, ready to play at CL level (Neto)

Players on CL level pathway so might be a season or two (Cunha, RAN, Gomes).

Players who somehow seem Wolves so less likely to go in short term (Cunha, Hwang, Kilman)

Older players who might want to finish at Wolves and still something to offer (Dawson, Sumedo, Mario Jr)

Good squad players / feels like early days to be leaving so wouldn't be sold at profit (2 Buenos, JRB)

Also depends on where players are with contracts and if high wages (Sarabia)

Hobbs did a brilliant job last summer but I think in many ways trickier this summer as it's less obvious who we'd be happy to lose.

 

[Tettenhall wulf]

Personally I wouldn't consider selling Mosquera. He as the potential to be a very good player.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

If we sold Ait-Nouri, Kilman and Neto for example. We are looking at £150m

We could get 6 very handy players for that price. Cementing our top 10 ambitions.

That’s without deadwood sales which I would put towards stadium improvements. Around 45m quoted figure.

Very bad example but profit and sustainability rules mean we could be ahead of the game with more big sales. New stand. New future stars and talent from Mendes too.

 

[Lobo de Ouro]

SA - £25m new contract & starter
DOHERTY - not worth anything resale wise
RAN - 50m clubs sniffing
S BUENO - £10m same as signed for
DAWSON - not worth anything resale wise
H BUENO - £15m potential player
SEMEDO - 10m (He only has 18 months on his contract?)
KILMAN - £40m (Whoever wants him)
TOTI - £25m Portuguese international
LEMINA JR - £20m (late bloomer)
B TRAORE - £10m not sure
J GOMES - £60m potential
DOYLE - £20m potential
BELLEGARDE - £10m raw potential
HODGE - £1m (Championship level)
NETO - £70m bidding war
HWANG - £40m goal scorer
CUNHA - £70 Brazil international profit will be needed
SARABIA - £2m age not much reseale value
FRASER - £5m raw potential
GUEDES - 12m wants out
FABIO - 10m wants out
PODENCE - 10m BAD EGG
HOEVER - 1m BAD EGG
CUNDLE - 3m potential player
SASA - 8m fitness issues
CHEM - 500k
CHIQ - 5m potential
MOSQUERA - 5m potential
BOLLA - 1m
LEMBIKISA - 3m international high potential

So most of our money will come from a Neto or Ait-Nouri sale. Then the deadwood like Fabio, Guedes…..

£3m for the next Paul Scholes seems a bit of a bargain.

 

[Oliwolf44]

As much as someone is willing to pay.
We'd have very few players left if I was in charge and the OP offered prices were available.
Media attention also inflates a fee, and sadly (or maybe a good thing but not in this point) none of our players get much. There is no real cacophony from national media for Neto like there was for grealish and rice.
It also takes time and consistent performances for value to build. Caicedo is one which feels an exception but rice, grealish were star performers on their teams for a few seasons playing at a high level before they were worth £100m

It also takes time and consistent performances for value to build. Caicedo is one which feels an exception but rice, grealish were star performers on their teams for a few seasons playing at a high level before they were worth £100m

Yes, I guess with Grealish and Rice they are England players with all of the extra chat that goes with them.

Neto got a very positive mention on last night's ITV live game.

£3m for the next Paul Scholes seems a bit of a bargain.

It will be if he leaves us. I think Gaz will take a look. One good season value will rocket with us

Hard to judge as the market conditions are changing because of dinancial rules restricting clubs ability to spend. Cluns in danger of punshment will be under pressure to sell cheaper than they might like.
One thing for sure with us is our players are in general worth more because of GON's results in improving their performances. The value of players though will depend on the players we want to keep and those to move on as long as they have time left on their contracts.For example we are in thedriving seat as far as Neto goes so clubs would have to pay premium. Guedes and Podence will go for under the value they should be.
Question for the club would be for example should they offer Somedo a new contract as next season his value will drop. It was a good gamble to take up the 2 year option on him as this season his quality has been far superior to last season.

I was flicking around You Tube last night and they did a list of the player values of all the Prem clubs. IIRC our total value was around 250 mil and I couldn't believe just how far down the list we were. We were only above Sheffield, Luton and Burnley in 17th. Shock horror!

Yeah but they gave Neto, as our ‘most valuable player’, a figure of £36m. Once I saw that it became obvious it was a nonsense.

So they reckon that Cunha who is now a proven PL player would go for less than we paid.... Yeah, right!

No chance he goes for less than £60m

I know Transfermarkt values aren't at all accurate, but they are all relative when comparing values.

If you look on Transfermarkt, like you say we are just above those 3 teams in terms of total market value.....

But the total market value doesn't account for the relatively small squad size. Along with West Ham and Man City, we have the smallest squad.

If you sort it by average market value, we are 12th, which is probably about right.....

View attachment 40365

Average player value of €13.76m, compared to a league average of €20.32m. We also have a relatively young average age, so those values are likely to overtake the likes of Fulham soon, as their average age is much higher, so values begin to fall, rather than rise.

I think we are quite low in total salaries - about 17th?

Punching above our weight and it feels like we're greater than the sum of our parts at the moment.

I disagree.
This squad is producing in accordance with their skills and potential.
No more,no less.
We are finding ourselves with a massively skillfull squad..and it is a squad that if kept together is having full potential for further progress in the future as well.
We are inches away from yet again becoming a real force in english football to be reckoned with.
Let´s stay together and let´s add those few guys that is missing.

We are nearly there..I see it every week,sometimes twice a week.I can taste it!
