Corinthians unveiled this week the ranking of its ten most valuable players, placing striker Yuri Alberto at the top with a market value of 23 million euros. The list, compiled from Transfermarkt data, arrives as the Timão struggles to balance its books and eyes potential revenue from player sales.
Who are the standout names in the ranking?
The number one spot belongs to Yuri Alberto, valued at 23 million euros (R$ 136.40 million). The number 9 has already hinted at seeking new challenges, fueling transfer speculation. In second place, Breno Bidon is listed at 22 million euros (R$ 130.40 million) and, thanks to his Italian passport obtained in March, could move to Europe without counting as a foreign player. The third‑ranked is midfielder André, priced at 16 million euros (R$ 94.84 million); AC Milan offered 17 million euros, but the club kept him.
How do these values affect the club’s finances?
Combined, the ten assets represent over R$ 600 million, a potential safety net for Corinthians, which currently sits 13th in Serie A with 47 points (12 wins, 11 draws, 15 losses). Selling one or two of these players could generate enough cash to cut the deficit and fund new signings, especially before the next derby.
Who else makes the list and what are their exit chances?
Beyond the top three, the list includes Rodrigo Garro (12 million €, R$ 71.13 million), Hugo Souza (11 million €, R$ 65.20 million) and Matheuzinho (8 million €, R$ 47.42 million). Memphis Depay, Matheus Bidu and Gui Negão are tied at 7 million € (R$ 41.49 million) each. Midfielder Raniele rounds out the top‑10 with 4 million € (R$ 23.71 million). While several European clubs monitor the squad, the board has not confirmed any concrete deals.
What’s the Timão’s current season outlook?
Corinthians have scored 42 goals and conceded 47, ending with a –5 goal difference. They sit 32 points behind leaders Flamengo and recently beat São Paulo 3‑2 on 10 May 2026. In the last five matches, the side recorded 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, with the most recent form being WLWDL. The next fixture is an away game against Internacional on 2 August 2026, with the opponent sitting 16th in the table.
What can be expected in the coming months?
If Corinthians manages to sell one of the top three assets, the influx could be used to strengthen the squad and climb the table. The management is still weighing whether to retain certain talents to avoid an immediate gap. Meanwhile, fans watch the transfer market closely, hoping the club can return to competing for higher positions.
