#3 Lucas Silva – Real Madrid – £9.35m decrease
Trending
Cruzeiro were paid €14 million for Lucas Silva by Real Madrid in January 2015 – a deal that looks like daylight robbery right now. Brazilian youngsters are always a gamble, but Lucas came with a burgeoning reputation.
He was loaned to Marseille, but that quickly proved to be a disaster as he refused to cut short the loan deal despite not shining on the pitch and was relegated to the reserves. To put his current plight in perspective, Lucas has not even been named in Real Madrid’s squad for the 2016/17 season.
It’s hardly a surprise then, that his value has fallen 84.6% in 2016. Real Madrid would find it difficult to find any suitors for the 23-year-old.
Jan 2016 value: £11.05 million
Jan 2017 value: £1.7 million
