Sir Jim Ratcliffe might have bruised a few egos in the Manchester United dressing room this week when he claimed the club do not have a single player who is worth €100 million.
The United co-owner named Real Madrid as the club they are aspiring to be and cited their ability to develop players as something they must look to emulate themselves in the coming years.
It is hard to dispute his claim, though according to the latest International Centre for Sports Studies (CIES) Football Observatory figures, there are two United players who they already value at the €100 million price tag.
So in a summer when United are looking to achieve record player sales in order to boost their transfer budget and help to balance the books, here is a look at how much CIES currently value every senior player at the club.
