Michael Owen gives himself lucrative transfer valuation with Kylian Mbappe comparison

Michael Owen has compared himself with Kylian Mbappe and claimed he would have been worth over £100million if he played today.

Owen retired from football back in 2013, bringing to an end a career which saw him play for Liverpool, Real Madrid, Newcastle United, Manchester United and Stoke City. He broke through into the Liverpool first team aged just 17 and enjoyed huge success with the club, scoring 158 goals in 297 appearances.

The England striker won the Premier League golden boot in consecutive seasons from 1997 to 1999 and went on to scoop the Ballon d’Or in 2001. Owen’s form in front of goal earned him an £8m move to Real in the summer of 2004 when he was 24 years old.
