Paris Saint-Germain star forward Kylian Mbappe has continued his brilliant scoring form this season. He also recently led the team to win the Trophée des Champions trophy. However, regarding his value, the French forward remains behind the likes of Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham. He was missing from the list of top ten most valuable players in the world.

The news comes as the transfer window drama starts again for the French forward. Paris Saint-Germain undoubtedly will have a big decision to make amid the fresh headache.

Why was Kylian Mbappe excluded from the most valuable players list despite his heroics?

It looks like the Real Madrid rumors are not affecting Kylian Mbappe on the pitch. The 2018 world cup winner led by example as he scored in the 2-0 win against Toulouse FC in the Trophée des Champions trophy final. This was also his first goal of 2024. But his performances have not had any impact on his status on the Top Ten Most Valuable Players list. The 25-year-old was surprisingly not included in the list. However, his downfall in the value is due to one major factor.

It is his contract situation with the French giants. The French forward has yet to decide on his existing contract. His contract is set to expire in the next summer transfer window. This has led to his overall value taking a hit. Mbappe’s current transfer value is reportedly at around €106.2M putting him far off the top 10 most valuable players. However, his other competitors are making huge jumps.

After a brilliant start to his Real Madrid career, Jude Bellingham tops the list with his value at €267.5 million. Manchester City star striker Erling Haaland is second on the list, with his value at €251.2 million. Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo, and Julian Alvarez are the other notable names on the list.
