World Cup 2018: 5 big names whose value has plummeted

#1 Thomas Müller

Korea Republic v Germany: Group F - 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia

Thomas Muller was another German player who did not live up to fans' expectations. In the wake of the absence of the fatherly figures of Philipp Lahm, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Miroslav Klose, the Germany's vice-captain was expected to lead the pack by example.

All the same, just like many other players, he also crumbled under pressure and failed to leave his mark. Muller played in all three of the matches, coming off the bench as a substitute in the 63rd minute in the last encounter against South Korea.

Nonetheless, the intimidating presence of the 28-year-old well-known for leathering the ball into the back of the net came to nothing in the high-priority competition.

Accordingly, his market value has also plunged dramatically.
