La Liga Players Experience Significant Market Value Decline in 2024
The Spanish football league, La Liga, has seen a notable decline in the market values of several prominent players during 2024. A recent report from the Spanish newspaper "AS" highlights that among the 15 players whose market values have dropped, a significant number hail from the league's top clubs, including Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, and Real Madrid.
Barcelona's Frenkie de Jong leads the list with a staggering decrease of 20 million euros, bringing his current market value down to 80 million euros from 100 million euros last year.

Other notable players from Barcelona experiencing a decrease include Andreas Christensen, Alejandro Balde, Pedri Gonzalez, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, and Ansu Fati, all of whom have seen their values drop by 10 million euros or more.
In total, the report identifies six players from Barcelona, two from Atletico Madrid, and two from Real Madrid, indicating a concerning trend for these elite teams. The full list of players and their current market values includes:
