The market value of Cardiff City's squad and the Celtic transfer target who's topping the charts

Some Bluebirds players have seen their value go up and others have seen their price plummet - here is the full list of how much each City player is worth in the transfer market



Cardiff City's most valuable player has certainly been proving his worth of late.

Bluebirds winger Josh Murphy has been in the best goalscoring form his career in recent weeks, having netted five times in his last six games, and is beginning to look like the £11million signing Cardiff fans were expecting.

Murphy's value, according to football database Transfermarkt, has risen by almost £8million since he joined the Bluebirds in the summer of 2018. It shot straight up to £7.2million in that window before being bumped up again to £9million after the Premier League campaign.

The 24-year-old flyer is said to be worth double Cardiff's next costliest player, which means if Celtic come in for the player again this summer they will be forced to fork out a princely sum to land his signature.

Neil Etheridge is City's next most valuable player, priced at £5.4million. However his value has dropped significantly since last summer, when he was priced at £7.2million, presumably owing to dropping down a division and having his game time greatly reduced.

Next on the list come a quartet of outfield players all priced at £4.5million: Sean Morrison , Aden Flint , Callum Paterson and Joe Ralls . Of those four, it is interesting to note that summer signing Flint has seen his market value slashed by £1.8million since moving to the Welsh capital.

City stars who have seen their values rise recently include summer recruits Robert Glatzel , Gavin Whyte and Curtis Nelson .

Glatzel's price has shot up by almost £1.5million since he moved to Cardiff City Stadium, Whyte is now priced at £1.8million while Nelson's doubled to £450,000 – and you can expect that to rise given his impressive run in the team.

For all his heroics, however, Lee Tomlin is inexplicably priced at just £1.8million, perhaps those at Transfermarkt might want to reassess that following his scintillating run of form.

Here's the full list below.

Paulh,

I said that the other day when the Sports Editor Paul Abbadanato wrote total rubbish in his last two articles.

It’s not like they have good reporters .


As they say When you pay peanuts , You get


They are suppose to be independent/but write what they are told, no matter what crap is in it.

Some of those valuations are nonsense. For example would anyone pay £3.15 million for Albert Adomah who will be 33 next season?

1.8 for Tomlin?? Can we buy some more??

1.8 for Tomlin?? Can we buy some more??

Yes we’ll have 2 and trade in Hoilett for £4m. Lol

Where are these figures coming from?

Where are these figures coming from?

transfermarkt.
and if using that is not bad enough he thinks their valuation / guess of Glatzels value has shot up by 1.5 mill from ????????? to 3 .6 mill...

just when you thought they had hit the bottom they employ Glen.

Even by WoL standards, this is absolute shite, drivel and insanity. Can't be bothered to pick the holes in it.

Who are these morons?

Robert Glatzel – £3.6m

"City stars who have seen their values rise recently include summer recruits Robert Glatzel"

"Glatzel's price has shot up by almost £1.5million since he moved to Cardiff City Stadium"

I thought we paid 5.75 million for Glatzel?

Is Glenn Williams going to offer any explanation for this tripe?
