Man City and Liverpool dominate most valuable players in the Premier League list
The list by Transfermrkt covers the top 20 most valuable players in the Premier League. Looking at the list’s results, it comes as little surprise that Liverpool and Manchester City dominate the charts, as the two clubs have been the best teams in the league over the past few seasons. However, several football fans would be surprised to know that it is a Manchester City player who has topped the most valuable players in the Premier League list and not one from the defending champions.
Raheem Sterling has averaged 41 goals and assists a season in all competitions since the 2017/18 campaign began. He notched up 2 goals and 1 assist away at Burnley last night. Given the fact he's not an out-and-out striker, his record in front of goal is astoundingly good. pic.twitter.com/hW8Q4Bho2k
