Atlético Madrid vs. Real Madrid: A Derby Worth Millions
Although Atlético Madrid has made the highest signing of the summer with Argentine Julián Álvarez, he still doesn’t even reach half of the estimated market value of Real Madrid’s squad, with 738.53 million dollars for the rojiblanco team compared to 1,592.42 million dollars for their rival, totaling 2,330.94 million dollars between the two for the derby this Sunday at the Metropolitano.
This is reflected in the estimated values for each player from the advanced statistics platform 'Be Soccer Pro,' which illustrates the difference between the two teams to the point that four players from Real Madrid (Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Júnior, and Federico Valverde) exceed the total market value of Atlético's entire roster.
The player with the highest value of both teams is Mbappé, who is unavailable for the derby due to a muscle injury, valued at 241.14 million dollars. He is followed by Vinicius Júnior at 226.69 million dollars. Next is Jude Bellingham at 223.89 million dollars. Later, Federico Valverde at 158.37 million dollars, followed by Rodrygo Goes at 143.70 million dollars, and Aurelien Tchouameni at 114.91 million dollars. All six players are from Real Madrid.
Among the two squads, they are the only ones exceeding one hundred million dollars. None from Atlético do so. Only Argentine Julián Álvarez comes close, valued at 90.2 million euros, which translates to 101.7 million dollars. The rojiblanco club paid 75 million euros upfront plus 20 million in variables to Manchester City for his signing this season. However, even then, he does not come close to the value of the white team.
In fact, the World Cup-winning forward with the 'albiceleste' is one of only two from the rojiblanco team among the top ten in market value between Real Madrid and Atlético, as Eduardo Camavinga appears next, valued at 90.8 million euros, equivalent to 101.7 million dollars, and Endrick at 61.7 million euros, translating to 69.1 million dollars, before Antoine Griezmann, valued at 52.5 million euros, which is 58.46 million dollars, according to the values from 'Be Soccer Pro.'
