Following the latest Transfermarkt update, there have been upward reviews of the market valuations of a few Nigerian footballers
Per data provided on renowned stats website Transfermarkt, Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is now valued at €65 million, the highest market value of his career.
Osimhen was valued at 60 million euros, but after scoring 18 goals and providing six assists in all competitions for Napoli, the former Lille has seen an upward review of his value.
With the new estimation, the 23-year-old forward is both the number one ranked Super Eagles and Napoli player.
He is ranked 7th among all the players in the Serie A and 38th in the world.
Osimhen scored four goals, the third ever Nigerian player to do so, as the Super Eagles thrashed Sao Tome and Principe in a record 10-0 win.
A couple of other Super Eagles players also enjoyed increases in their market values.
After a season where he smashed 15 Bundesliga goals, Union Berlin forward Taiwo Awoniyi is now valued at an all-time high of 20 million euros.
The 24-year-old is the most valuable player at the German club, the third in Nigeria, and the 46th in the German top flight.
Genk-owned striker Cyriel Dessers has also hit his career's highest transfer value of €6 million, following an excellent season.
The 27-year-old netted ten goals in the Europa Conference League to finish as the top goalscorer, powering Feyenoord to the final of the maiden edition of the competition.
