Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe is currently the most valuable footballer on the planet.

The 21-year-old forward is valued at £162m on Transfermarkt, which is over £40m more than Raheem Sterling in second place.

As well as having the most valuable player in the world, PSG also completed the most expensive transfer the game has ever seen when they signed Neymar from Barcelona for £198m in the summer of 2017.

So due to the ridiculous numbers laid out above, it'll come as no shock to anyone to learn that throughout the course of footballing history, both Mbappe and Neymar have been the most valuable player ever at a specific age - the pair achieving the feat multiple times.

The former can lay claim to having the highest valuation of any footballer ever (£180m) when he was just 20 years of age, which is pretty darn ridiculous.

So there you have it. Ronaldo currently leads the valuation race in five different ages, the most of any player.

However, given Mbappe's ridiculously high valuation at the time of writing, the Frenchman will all but certainly add to his current tally of four in the coming years to eclipse the Juventus star.
