MVP: Lamine Yamal 34 billion naira more valuable than Victor Osimhen

The 17-year-old enjoyed a blistering season with Barcelona after breaking into the first-team last season.

He took his tremendous form into the just-completed Euros 2024, helping Spain clinch a record-breaking European trophy.

His remarkable performance has placed him in the top 10 list of the Most Valuable Players in the World.

The recently released Most Valuable Players in the World has seen Yamal move to the 10 position, above some top players in Europe.

According to CentreGoals on X, a new list of the Most Valuable Players in the World which was compiled by Transfer Market has been released.

The history-making Yamal beat the likes of Napoli star Victor Osimhen, Real Madrid winger, Rodrygo, Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice and others to the top 10.

Osimhen who is the most valued Super Eagles player did not make the top 10 list and was rooted in the 18th position.

Yamal’s influence grew after he broke two different records during the just-completed Euro 2024 tournament.

The Spanish winger became the youngest player to play at the Euros and also the youngest player to score at a European tournament.

The youngster also played all seven games for Spain and provided the most assists (4) in the tournament.

As it stands, the Spanish international is the favourite to win the Ballon d'Or Best Young Player award.
