LaLiga Santander has lost its appeal after the departures of two of its best players in the last decade: Sergio Ramos and above all, Leo Messi. The siren songs from Paris have convinced the Rosario and the Camas to signing for PSG once they did not reach a renewal agreement with Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, respectively.
The two marches are an opportunity for the youngest of the championship: LaLiga has one of the competitions that treasures the most young talent with some names such as Pedri, Ansu Fati, Joao Félix, Koundé, Isak, Ronald Araujo, Zubimendi, Odegaard, Kubo or Yeremi Pino, who are 10 of the under 23 players with the greatest potential in the coming years.
Other names such as Vinicius and Rodrygo (Real Madrid) could also appear in the top 10; Sergiño Dest, Emerson, Eric Garcia, Riqui Puig or Mingueza (FC Barcelona); Chukwueze (Villarreal); Berrenetxea (Royal Society); o Fran Beltrán (Celta de Vigo), among others.
Eight Catalans among the youngsters with the highest market value
FC Barcelona, now without Leo Messi and waiting to be able to define the squad for the 2021/22 season, has several young players who are among the best under 23 in LaLiga, according to Transfermarkt. Among them, Pedri (1st) and Ansu Fati (3rd), the two best: they have a market value of 80 and 60 million euros, respectively. Also in the top 10 are Sergiño Dest (9th) with a value of € 30M and Ronald Araujo (10th), with € 25M.
The other azulgranas that complete the list are: Emerson Royal (€ 11 / € 25M), Eric Garcia (€ 14 / € 20M), Riqui Puig (€ 15 / € 18M) and Òscar Mingueza (€ 17 / € 15M). Other figures also appear later, such as those of Àlex Collado (35º) or Iñaki Peña (43º), subsidiary players.
