Top Ten Most Valuable Nigerian Teenagers Including Arsenal, Chelsea, Norwich Super Kids

Published: March 19, 2020

Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has the title of being the most valuable Nigeria-eligible teenager in the world, according to the latest Transfermarkt values.

Of the ten most expensive players eligible to represent the Nigeria national teams, only one in the shape of Red Bull Salzburg's Chukwubuike Adamu was born in Nigeria, specifically Kano, while three are on the books of Premier League clubs.

At 22 million euros, Saka has seen his market value increase following his brilliant displays for Arsenal first team, which has led to speculation that he is being considered to represent The Three Lions.

Red Bull Salzburg's Karim Adeyemi comes second at 7.5 million euros and has seen his value increase after he was linked with a host of European giants before extending his contract.

In third place is Bayern Munich's Joshua Zirkzee, who is worth 7 million euros. He was named in Netherlands U21 provisional roster before the postponement of the Euro qualifiers.

Two days after inking a contract extension with PSV, former Tottenham Hotspur youth-team skipper Nonso Madueke saw his market value increase to five million euros, making him the most expensive midfielder on the list.

Former Arsenal starlet Xavier Amaechi is in the top five with the Hamburg winger now rated at three million euros, followed by Chelsea midfielder Faustino Anjorin at 2.5 million euros.

Norwich City's Adam Idah, Red Bull Salzburg pair Bryan Okoh and Adamu, and Admira Wacker's Emanuel Aiwu are joint seventh in the ranking at one million euros each.
