Santiago Giménez worth more than 10 Liga MX clubs

Santiago Giménez is the most in-form Mexican player right now and that is reflected in his current valuation. The former Cruz Azul player is a star at Dutch outfit Feyenoord and Transfermarkt has raised his valuation to €40 million, making the Mexico international worth more than 10 Liga MX teams, including Universidad Nacional.

Despite the fact that Pumas are third in the overall standings in the Apertura 2023, Transfermarkt has valued the club’s squad at €34.8 million, over €5 million less than Giménez. The Eredivisie marksman is also worth twice as much as the entire Puebla squad.

Feyenoord’s record transfer fee?

Giménez could eventually become Feyenoord’s all-time record sale. Orkun Kokcu was sold for €25m to Benfica in the last transfer window (record) and Giménez has already been linked to some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Spanish giants Real Madrid.
