More than Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo? It was known how much Maradona would be worth today

Today the market value of Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo was devalued due to their age and due to the bad economic period that world football is going through. But if we consider the highest market value of each player according to Transfermarket was $ 120 million for Cristiano Ronaldo and $ 180 million for Lionel Messi.

A report by the Italian newspaper La Repubblica concluded that Diego Maradona would be without a doubt the player with the best market value in the world, but he would also be surpassed by a Brazilian player. Ronaldo Nazario, for La Repubblica, would be the one with the best market value today.

According to the Italian media, Diego Maradona would have a value greater than $ 400 million, that is, almost four times more than Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi today. To have a dimension of what Diego Maradona could be worth, Erling Haaland or Neymar are worth less than $ 100 million and are the best players in the world.

If it is almost impossible to know how much Diego Maradona or Pele could be worth today, the newspaper La Repubblica is based on how much came out at the time and what were their personal achievements. What Diego Maradona generated in terms of marketing, was generated by few players throughout history.
