Lionel Messi

Reports from November 2025 cited a market value of €18 million for the player according to Transfermarkt. Earlier, in June 2025, the same source reportedly estimated his market worth at €20 million. In the context of a potential free agent move, a Saudi Arabian signing bonus of €300 million was reportedly offered in June 2025. Additionally, a November 2025 report mentioned Barcelona predicted generating €200 million in commercial revenue if he returned, though this was not a transfer fee.

Our valuation is driven by consistent third-party market assessments from late 2025, which place the player's value between €18-20 million. While there is significant reported interest, particularly from Saudi Arabia, this has focused on massive salary packages for a free transfer rather than a transfer fee. Given the player's advanced age and recent contract extension to 2028, the range reflects a realistic fee Inter Miami might command, anchored by the available market data.
