It has been a week since the start of Euro 2020. With 15 games played, the participating teams and their players are on the radar of viewers worldwide.

England have one of the most exciting lineups at Euro 2020. Blessed with raw talent, their squad is one of the youngest to feature in the competition. With many of the English players featuring for some of the biggest clubs in the world, it's not surprising that they are very highly valued.

5 Players with the highest value in England's Euro 2020 squad


#5. Phil Foden - £72 million

Phil Foden has been seriously impressive over the course of the year. A key figure for his club Manchester City, Foden has burst onto the scene this year with his remarkable footballing ability.

Part of the Cityzens' title-winning team, Foden already has a ridiculous amount of silverware for a 21-year-old. He has three Premier League titles and four League Cups to his name. The midfielder has also won the FA Cup once and recently earned the prestigious Premier League Young Player of the Year award for his exploits with Manchester City.

Still only 21, Foden is highly rated as one of the best young footballers in the world. Often touted as a generational talent, Foden's emergence at club level has seen him start for England at Euro 2020. With his career still at its nascent stage, the Manchester City star would love to win Euro 2020 and cement his place as one of the best footballers in the world.


#4. Marcus Rashford - £76.50 million

Marcus Rashford is the embodiment of Manchester United's spirit. A Mancunian through and through, Rashford has spent his entire career so far with the Red Devils.

Making his professional debut at the age of 18, Rashford immediately broke the English headlines. His blistering pace and attacking ability was refreshing to see, and United were the beneficiaries of his talent.

Although Manchester United have stagnated in the years since Marcus Rashford's blistering start at the club, he has several individual accolades in addition to three major trophies with the team. He was first called up to represent the Three Lions in 2016 and has made 42 appearances since.

With Euro 2020 underway, Rashford faces tough competition within the team for a place in the starting lineup. Having played 20 mins as a substitute in England's opening match, Rashford will be waiting to make his mark with the Three Lions at Euro 2020.


#3. Raheem Sterling - £81 million

Having scored the winner in England's first game at Euro 2020, Raheem Sterling looks set to have a strong tournament with the Three Lions.

Sterling is a familiar face in English football. Making his debut in 2012, Sterling represented Liverpool for four years before his move to Manchester. Joining Manchester City in a move worth a reported £44 million, Sterling has won several trophies since, playing a key part in all of them.

England are lucky to have several attacking options at their disposal. While Sterling's spot in the starting lineup was a doubt to many, the Englishman repaid Gareth Southgate's faith in him by clinching the winner in a grueling match against World Cup finalists Croatia.

Sterling looks set to start for England and will aim to carry his goalscoring form into the remainder of Euro 2020.


#2. Jadon Sancho - £90 million

Jadon Sancho has been turning heads ever since his move to Borussia Dortmund in 2017.

Initially from the Manchester City youth system, Sancho was sold to Dortmund in 2017 for a reported £8 million. He made the starting lineup almost immediately, and has impressed viewers ever since.

Revered for his pace and creativity, Sancho has yet to win major silverware at club level. He has won the DFP Pokal with Dortmund once but the common opinion remains that a player of his stature deserves a bigger challenge.

Heavily linked with Manchester United over the past two years, Sancho has been vocal about his desire to join the English giants. However, with Sancho's value set at £90 million, the two teams have been unable to work out a deal so far.

Although he missed England's opening game against Croatia, coach Gareth Southgate has maintained that Sancho is very much part of his plans. Facing tough competition for a starting spot, whether or not Sancho will have an impact at Euro 2020 remains to be seen.


#1. Harry Kane - £108 million

Harry Kane is one of the best strikers in world football. Captain of his side at club and country level, Kane takes top spot in the list of most valuable England players.

After spending the last 12 years with Tottenham, Kane has delighted viewers regularly with his attacking prowess. A prolific goalscorer, Kane has made 242 appearances for Spurs, scoring a mammoth 166 goals. His goalscoring numbers are truly phenomenal, and the Englishman is already the seventh highest goalscorer in Premier League history.

An England player since 2015, Kane has featured frequently for the Three Lions, making 55 appearances and bagging 34 goals. He has been England captain since the 2018 FIFA World Cup, where he impressed fans and pundits alike. He also won the prestigious Golden Boot at the World Cup, and led his team to the semifinals.

Kane's lethal streak has attracted suitors from across Europe's elite clubs. In the build up to Euro 2020, interest in Kane has spiked, with several top teams reportedly interested in the 27-year-old. Currently valued at £108 million, there is a substantial amount of pressure on Kane to deliver at Euro 2020.
