If Neymar costs 222 million, how much would Pele, Maradona, and Zidane be worth today?

Teams don't mind spending 50 million on names like Kyle Walker, or about 100 million on Gonzalo Higui.

Eight out of the 10 most expensive transfers of all time took place after 2017, with names such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Antoine Greezmann, Philip Coutinho and Kylian Mbppe, all who cost over 100 million euros.

Such deals push for comparisons with past players, prompting questions about how much they would cost in today's merkato.

If Romelu Luke is worth more than 80 million pounds, how much would Diego Maradona, or Pele, cost? How much does Real Madrid have to pay for Zinedine Zidane?

It is difficult to determine exactly what value past players would have on the modern market, but a fundamental metric such as inflation gives an idea, though it remains unclear.

Calculations made by '%Goalʹ, over how many names such as Zidane, Cruyff, Pele or Maradona would be worth.

These are the figures based on inflation. But how does the situation change? If Neymar cost 222m euros, then Pele, who won the World Cup at a young age and had a big career, would be worth about 320m euros.

Ronaldo the phenomenon was supposed to be worth 125m euros, while Zidane and Maradona were worth 100m euros.
