Erling Haaland and his Manchester City teammates Phil Foden and Ruben Dias have been included in the most valuable starting XI in world football.
Transfermarkt have revealed the new values of the best performers at the World Cup, with the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Enzo Fernandez and City striker Julian Alvarez all increasing in value after impressing in Qatar.
Mbappe, who scored goals to win the golden boot award, has reclaimed his spot at the most valuable player in the world from Haaland. The Frenchman's value has risen to €180m while the City star has remained at €170m.
Haaland and Mbappe lead the attacking line in the most valuable XI, and they are supported in midfield by Foden. The 22-year-old England star - who signed a new long-term contract with City back in October - has a value of €110m, the same as England teammate and potential City transfer target Jude Bellingham.

Joining Haaland and Foden is Dias, who helped Portugal reach the quarter-final stage of the competition. Dias - who City signed from Benfica in a deal worth around £65m in 2020 - is valued at €75m, making him the most valuable defender in the world alongside exciting Croatia and RB Leipzig talent Josko Gvardiol.
City are the only club to have two representatives in the XI, with Real Madrid having two in the shape of Thibaut Courtois (€60m) and Vinicius Junior (€120m).
The Transfermarkt market values are calculated taking into account various pricing models. A major factor is the Transfermarkt community, whose members discuss and evaluate player market values in detail. In general, the Transfermarkt market values are not to be equated with transfer fees.
