| 4/29/26 | An unexpected title race in France, Juventus' €100m striker and 5 Premier League stars on the rise | Episode 8 covers four leagues and five expert conversations, recorded just ahead of the Champions League semi-final between Bayern Munich and PSG.Stefan and Manu open with the Bundesliga market value forum, debating three community case studies: 19-year-old FC Cologne winger Said El-Mala (€35m current, users averaging €43.6m); Dortmund right-back Julien Ryerson, who broke the Bundesliga all-time assist record for a fullback but is 28 and entering his peak sell-on window; and a forward whose final fixtures against Hamburg, Dortmund, and Stuttgart could swing his valuation ahead of a Bundesliga update.France area manager Ronan Caroff joins to spotlight three players driving Lens's unlikely Ligue 1 title challenge. Goalkeeper Robin Risser (€25m, +€23.5m this season) was let go by Strasbourg for €3m and is now the top market value riser among all Ligue 1 keepers, with Chelsea, Brighton and Newcastle watching. Centre-back Samson Baidoo (€25m) arrived from Salzburg for €8m and has attracted interest from Inter, Juventus, Dortmund and Liverpool. And new midfield maestro Sangare, who joined the club from Rapid Vienna.Italian football expert Marius Soyke breaks down Kenan Yildiz — Juventus's vice-captain, number 10, and now the second most valuable player in Serie A at €75m. Cut loose by Bayern Munich's academy, Yildiz has 11 goals and 10 assists across all competitions this season. The discussion covers his market value trajectory, Juventus's coaching instability, and what a strong World Cup with Turkey could mean for a potential €100m+ move.Premier League analyst Ben Littlemore rounds out the episode with five players set to rise in the June 3rd market value update: Ryan Cherki (Man City, €65m), Igor Thiago (Brentford, €50m), Kroupi Junior (Bournemouth, €40m), Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa, €80m), and Elliot Anderson (Nottingham Forest, €60m). Head to the TransferMarkt Market Value Forum to vote before the update goes live.Chapters00:00 What's on episode 8 of Market Values?02:04 Three Bundesliga players that need new market values02:43 Should Said El Mala's market value go up?08:17 What should Julian Ryerson's market value be?14:23 Does Can Uzun deserve a drop in market value?20:07 Lens push for the Ligue 1 title21:23 Why Robin Risser may be the best keeper in Ligue 127:02 The remarkable rise of Samson Baidoo 32:14 Why Mamadou Sangare may be the best Ligue 1 midfielder outside PSG36:01 The secret behind Lens' scouting operations40:38 Kenan Yildiz's development at Juventus46:01 A rare success story for youth players in Serie A50:12 Does Yildiz need to leave Juventus to reach a €100m market value?57:18 Five Premier League players that will get market values increases59:26 How to vote on Transfermarkt player market values01:00:35 Rayan Cherki01:02:30 Igor Thiago01:06:36 Morgan Rogers01:09:11 Elliot Anderson01:12:25 Engaging with Market Value Discussions | — | |
| 4/22/26 |  Kane favourites for the Ballon d'Or? Arsenal's broken attack and a much-needed rebuild in Madrid | Episode 7 of Market Values brings you a truly global breakdown of the biggest stories in football, covering the Premier League, Bundesliga, and La Liga in one packed show.We start in England with a huge title race discussion following Manchester City’s win over Arsenal. The panel analyses whether this was the defining moment in the race, breaking down the tactical battle, key performances, and how the result shifts momentum. There is also a deeper look into Arsenal’s season overall, questioning whether results reflect performances and examining issues around consistency, squad depth, and mentality. On the other side, we explore how Pep Guardiola’s City continue to peak at the most important stage of the campaign.The focus then shifts to Germany, where Bayern Munich have secured yet another Bundesliga title. The discussion looks at what this dominance means in a wider context, including its potential impact on the Ballon d’Or race. A major talking point here is Harry Kane, his individual performances, goal output, and whether his move to Bayern is now being viewed differently in light of team success. The conversation also touches on Bayern’s overall structure and whether their domestic dominance still reflects true strength at the highest European level.Finally, we head to Spain for an in-depth segment on Real Madrid, featuring insight into what could be a major transitional period at the club. The episode explores a possible squad rebuild, which players could leave in the summer, and the huge question surrounding the managerial position. With one of the biggest jobs in world football potentially becoming available, we break down the leading candidates and what direction the club could take next.Across all three segments, the show ties together performance analysis, transfer implications, and long-term squad planning, giving you a complete picture of the current football landscape.If you are looking for detailed, cross-league football analysis with a strong focus on market values, transfers, and big-picture trends, this episode has everything you need.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Episode 7 topics03:21 Man City 2-1 Arsenal recap08:59 Is Arsenal's attacking line good enough?15:01 Can Arsenal's attacking players make the difference in Europe?21:45 Man City's gifted youngsters coming to the fore25:13 Cherki's remarkable first season with Man City27:30 Is O'Reilly in line for Young Player of the Year?32:53 Bundesliga Triumph: Bayern Munich's Title Win34:20 Can Harry Kane win the Ballon d'Or in 2026?42:00 Can Michael Olise win the Ballon d'Or in 2026?51:55 Real Madrid's Disappointing Season56:49 Do Real Madrid need to fix their squad this summer?01:00:18 Who will be the next manager of Real Madrid? | — | |
| 4/15/26 | Argentina's struggling stars, a historic title race in Scotland & how can we fix Chelsea in 2026? | **Market Values | Episode 6** This week's episode of the Market Values podcast — brought to you by TransferMarkt — opens with instant Champions League reaction, before moving through Argentine football, the most dramatic Scottish Premiership title race in 40 years, and a full-length forensic breakdown of everything wrong (and occasionally right) at Chelsea Football Club. **Stefan Bienkowski** and **Manuel Veth** kick things off in the immediate aftermath of PSG vs Liverpool and Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona. Their central argument: Luis Enrique may quietly be the best Champions League manager in the world right now — statistically ahead of Zidane, Klopp, Guardiola, and Tuchel in points per game since his first UCL campaign. PSG bent but didn't break at Anfield, scored on the break twice, and moved through with characteristic efficiency. Liverpool, by contrast, looked like a team caught between Klopp's system and Slot's identity — mispositioned players, indecisive substitutions, and a formation that served no one well. The Barcelona discussion centres on Hansi Flick's inescapable problem: 44 Champions League goals conceded in 26 games. Stunning attacking football — but without defensive solidity, European glory remains out of reach. Atletico and Simeone, as ever, found a way. TransferMarkt's Buenos Aires correspondent **Scott Christensen** then joins Manu to survey the Argentine football landscape. The focus lands on two high-profile loan struggles: **Valentín Carboni** (Inter Milan) — a genuine talent now sidelined with an ACL injury after failing to nail down a regular position at Racing Club; and **Kendry Páez** (Chelsea) — the 18-year-old Ecuadorian who moved to River Plate but has barely featured, sitting on a bench under a manager who tactically has little use for him. Scott also introduces two prospects on the rise: **Franco Mastantuono** at Racing Club and **Milton Delgado** at Boca Juniors, linked with a move to Bayer Leverkusen. The broader context is sobering: Argentina's football economy is falling further behind Brazil's, with prize money differentials as stark as 20-to-1 and a league structure Scott describes as "a mess." TransferMarkt Scotland writer **Ewan Robertson** joins Stefan to discuss Hearts FC's remarkable charge for the Scottish Premiership title — sitting top of the table with five games remaining, including must-play fixtures against Hibs, Rangers, and Celtic. Tony Bloom's €10m+ investment and the Jamestown Analytics system have quietly transformed the club, with a 59% squad market value rise this season. But can Hearts hold their nerve? Ewan thinks the story is real — he just isn't sure it ends with a trophy. The episode closes with **Joe Krishnan** delivering the most detailed Chelsea autopsy of the season. Three goals conceded to Man City in 18 second-half minutes. A squad worth over £1bn that can't secure fifth place. Senior players — Fernández, Cukurella, Palmer — linked with exits. A manager (Rossini) with good intentions but a troubling pattern of conceding late. And a board that Joe believes has yet to genuinely acknowledge the project isn't working. If Rossini goes, Joe's pick to replace him is Cesc Fàbregas — a popular name with Chelsea links, a winning mentality, and an extraordinary track record developing youth at Como. | — | |
| 4/8/26 | Episode 5: Finding Man Utd's Casemiro replacement, scouting wonderkids in Belgium and why Messi is still king in MLS | Welcome back to Market Values, the Transfermarkt podcast where our global experts break down the biggest stories in football — from record-breaking wonderkids to shifting market values across Europe and beyond.In this episode, we take you on a worldwide journey through the game, analysing the players, clubs, and trends shaping football right now 👇🌍 What’s inside this episode?⭐ Lamine Yamal vs Mbappé vs Haaland – Who is REALLY the most valuable player?We kick things off with a heated debate from the Transfermarkt community. With all three players valued at €200m, we examine whether Barcelona’s teenage sensation truly deserves to stand alone at the top — or if proven superstars still hold the edge.🇩🇪 The next Bayern superstar? Tom Bischof analysedA name you NEED to know. We dive into why Bayern Munich’s versatile youngster is flying under the radar and why his market value could explode in 2026.🔴 Manchester United’s midfield rebuild under Michael CarrickWith Kobbie Mainoo thriving and major departures looming, what do United need next?

| 4/1/26 | The top stars missing the World Cup, a Jacquet scouting report & why Endrick is thriving in Ligue 1 | In Episode 4 of Market Values, the Transfermarkt podcast, Stefan and Manu react live to the World Cup qualifying results that sent shockwaves through Europe. Italy have been beaten out by Bosnia — and will miss their third consecutive world Cup — while Poland fell to Sweden and Denmark were eliminated by the Czech Republic. The fallout is enormous, and the market value implications are even bigger.Together, Stefan and Manu break down Transfermarkt's top 10 most valuable players who won't be at the World Cup, headlined by Liverpool's Dominik Szoboszlai (€100m), PSG winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (€90m), and Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali (€80m). They dig into which players needed the World Cup the most — and why Victor Osimhen, now permanently at Galatasaray after a disappointing Champions League exit, may have missed his best chance of engineering a blockbuster move to one of Europe's elite clubs.Then Stefan sits down with Ben Littlemore, Transfermarkt's Premier League Market Value Coordinator, to discuss three Premier League players whose values could shift dramatically before the end of the season:🔵 Adam Wharton (Crystal Palace, €60m) — Is the England midfielder on the verge of a breakout summer? With Man City, Man United, Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid all linked, a strong end to the season and a World Cup starting berth could catapult his value even higher.🟠 Mateus Fernandes (West Ham, €35m) — West Ham's best player this season has stepped up in the wake of Lucas Paquetá's exit, but relegation remains a real threat. Could that actually work in his favour in the transfer market?🔴 Florian Wirtz (Liverpool, €110m) — The German's numbers look decent on paper, but Ben takes a closer look and raises some genuine questions about whether Wirtz has really hit his stride at Liverpool — and what Salah's imminent departure could mean for his role next season.Finally, Stefan speaks to Ronan Caroff, Transfermarkt's France Area Manager, about the biggest stories from the Ligue 1 market value update. They discuss Jeremy Jacquet's remarkable rise from Ligue 2 loan player to a €55m-valued Liverpool signing, Endrick's revival at Lyon after struggling for minutes at Real Madrid, and a wider conversation about why Ligue 1 has become the hottest talent market in world football — and whether Transfermarkt's valuations can keep pace with the fees clubs are now paying. | — | |
| 3/25/26 | New MVP in the Bundesliga, Portugal's struggling stars & why Como are heading to Europe | The international break gives us a chance to catch up on a mammoth wave of Transfermarkt market value updates — and there's plenty to dig into. Stefan Bienkowski is joined by Manu Veth to discuss the biggest stories from three leagues, speaking to Transfermarkt experts Tobias Kroeger (Bundesliga), Goncalo Tristao Santos (Liga Portugal) and Marius Soyke (Serie A).We kick things off in Germany, where a fascinating changing of the guard has taken place at the very top of the Bundesliga valuations. Then it's over to Portugal, where a surprise bloodbath of downgrades among the league's biggest names raises big questions about the future of Samu and Morten Hjulmand. And finally we head to Italy, where Inter's Alessandro Bastoni drops from the world's joint-most-valuable defender, Pio Esposito continues his remarkable rise, Christian Pulisic's injury woes take their toll ahead of a home World Cup, Weston McKennie rewrites his Juventus story — and Como's staggering squad value surge makes the case that Cesc Fabregas's side are one of the most exciting club projects in European football right now.We also reveal the Transfermarkt player we think Tottenham fans should have on their radar if they're in need of some good news.💬 Got an opinion on a player's market value?

| 3/18/26 | Pedri overtakes Bellingham, Dowman tops the class and a scouting mission to Brazil | Episode 2 of Market Values — the Transfermarkt podcast that tells you the value of a player and why that really matters — is packed with insight from across the globe.Host Stefan Bienkowski is joined by Manu Veth, Transfermarkt's North America Area Manager, to kick things off with a look at Max Dowman's record-breaking week at Arsenal and what his €20m opening market value tells us about the generation of players born in 2009. They compare him with Hertha Berlin's Kennet Eichhorn — the same age, the same valuation, and a very different transfer outlook.Manu then sits down with Marcos Watts, Transfermarkt's Brazil Area Manager, for a deep dive into the Brazilian Série A market value update. They explore the extraordinary transformation of Brazilian football's financial landscape, the ongoing debate about young players departing for Europe too soon, and the cases of Vitor Roque, Kenny Arroyo, and Yuri Alberto — all of whom left early, returned, and found their form. Marcos also highlights the next wave of talent to watch ahead of the summer window, including Corinthians midfielder André and Grêmio teenager Gabriel Mec.To close the show, Stefan and Manu are joined by Transfermarkt's Market Value Coordinator Tobias Kröger to break down the La Liga update. On the agenda: Jude Bellingham's second consecutive market value drop and what it says about the burden of setting the bar too high; Trent Alexander-Arnold's slow adaptation to life at Real Madrid; Pedri's continued rise at Barcelona; and the story of Antony, who has rediscovered the form that once made him one of the most exciting players in Europe — this time at Real Betis.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Market Values episode 201:49 What's on today's show?05:43 The remarkable rise of Max Dowman07:47 Kennet Eichhorn's incredible potential10:53 Can Dowman succeed at Arsenal?14:31 Brazil market value update21:27 Why big players are returning to Brazil28:27 The impact of new money in Brazilian Football34:35 Top emerging talents in Brazilian Football41:07 Introduction to La Liga Market Value Update41:56 Jude Bellingham's Market Value Decline48:04 Alexander-Arnold's struggles at Real Madrid55:51 Pedri is now Barcelona's midfield engine01:03:44 Antony's Comeback at Betis | — | |
