The 2025 Spanish Super Cup final brings together four of the world's five most valuable players as Real Madrid take on eternal rivals Barcelona.
Spanish football is showing its best side in Saudi Arabia. The Supercopa final promises a match of the highest caliber, with a classic clash between Madrid and Barcelona with an unparalleled lineup. Four of the five most valuable players in the world will take the field. This is a rare opportunity to see Vinicius (24), Bellingham (21), Lamine Yamal (17) and Mbappé (26) compete against each other. Only Haaland (24) is missing to complete the top five.
No other competition can bring together such a concentration of dazzling stars. Collectively, these four players are valued at $720 million according to Transfermarkt, a specialist website. This dream quartet exceeds the total value of renowned clubs such as Atlético, Inter, Juventus or Milan. It is an unprecedented line-up that will decide the first national title of the season. Expect top football in Jeddah.
“Vinicius is the best player in the world,” Ancelotti declared after the controversial incident at the Mestalla, as he stood firmly behind his protégé. This view is supported by the FIFA The Best award Vinicius received just before the Intercontinental Final and his high market valuation. Transfermarkt lists the Brazilian at $200 million, the highest ever recorded for a footballer who rivals Haaland and, in 2019 as reigning world champion, his teammate Mbappé. Vinicius' stellar performance in last season's final, where he scored a hat-trick against the Blaugranas, was a key factor in his FIFA award and record rating.
Bellingham and Lamine Yamal share the third spot, each valued at $180 million. The penultimate superstar and newest gem from La Masia meet for the third time in a final. Last year the English team won the Supercopa; in July the Euro Cup was won by Rocafonda's prodigy. Both titles boosted Jude's market value and tripled Lamine's within a year.
Mbappe completes this star-studded Supercopa line-up. The French star, valued at $160 million, has been a mainstay in global football history for several seasons and is aiming to regain his top form from 2019. He has performed well in the finals, scoring in both the Supercopa de Europa and the Intercontinental Cup. Mbappé is a golden asset for LaLiga and concludes what promises to be a luxurious Supercopa.
