After an incredible season for both club and country, the 20-year-old midfielder, who originally cost £88.5 million to sign with Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund last summer, is a strong candidate to win the Ballon d’Or.
For Carlo Ancelotti’s team, he recorded 23 goals and 12 assists across all competitions with three of those goals coming in the Champions League, which he won for the first time this month.
Bellingham’s market worth has skyrocketed due to his success. According to a Safebettingsites study, the former midfield player for Birmingham City is valued at £180 million.
The England international’s valuation, if true, surpasses the combined squad values of six other nations:
- Romania (£78 million)
- Albania (£95 million)
- Slovenia (£123 million)
- Slovakia (£133 million)
- Georgia (£136 million)
- Hungary (£140 million)
England’s Euro 2024 squad is also the most expensive one in the tournament. In fact, Gareth Southgate’s team is valued five times more than Serbia’s ahead of their Group C opening.
Bellingham is their most expensive player, while Kieran Trippier (£8.5 million) is their least valuable player, according to the study.
With a price tag of £153 million, Kylian Mbappe is the most expensive player in France together with Bellingham, his Real Madrid teammate, while Olivier Giroud is the least costly at just £2.5 million.

Underdogs Scotland have a total worth of £177 million, which is seven times less than England’s and the eighth-lowest at the tournament, as you can see in the image above.
Poland is ranked slightly ahead of Steve Clarke’s team, and their most valuable player is Jakub Kiwior, an Arsenal defender.
