5 most valuable players at Real Madrid currently

#3 Federico Valverde - €65 million

Federico Valverde has impressed with Los Blancos

Federico Valverde is one of the most promising players in the Real Madrid squad at the moment.

The 23-year-old has already racked up over 100 games for Los Blancos across competitions, contributing six goals and seven assists. He may make a lot of goal contributions, but has impressed with his prowess in the middle of the park.

Thanks to his versatility, the Uruguayan can be deployed anywhere across the middle third. He has also played a few games as a right-back.

It was Valverde's extra-time strike that sealed a five-goal Super Cup semi-final against Barcelona in Los Blancos' favour. Real Madrid went on to beat Athletic Bilbao in the final to win their first silverware of the season.

#2 Thibaut Courtois - €65 million

Thibaut Courtois has had an excellent stint with Los Blancos

Thibaut Courtois is one of the best goalkeepers in the game at the moment. The lanky Los Blancos custodian has enjoyed an excellent time with the club.

Since arriving from Chelsea in the summer of 2018, Courtois has been the undisputed number one at the Santiago Bernabeu. He recently made his 150th appearance across competitions for Los Blancos. In 159 games for the club, the former Blues goalkeeper has kept 64 clean sheets.

This season, Courtois has kept seven clean sheets in the league as Carlo Ancelotti's men find themselves top of the pile after 22 games. He has kept another four shutouts in the Champions League.

#1 Vinicius Junior - €100 million

Vinicius Junior has been in rollicking form this season

Vinicius Junior has only recently begun to justify his lofty price tag - €45 million - which Real Madrid paid to Flamengo in the summer of 2018.

Touted as the next big thing in the game, Vinicius flattered to deceive for three seasons before truly coming into his own this campaign. With 15 goals across competitions, he has comfortably doubled his goal tally for the club, and has also chipped in with an impressive 11 assists.

Considering his staggering exploits this season, Real Madrid are contemplating a bumper contract extension for Vinicius to ward off potential suitors. At the moment, he is one of the lowest-paid players at the club.
