Concacaf players had a fantastic end to their years in Europe and their remarkable performances on the pitch, both for their clubs and national team, have started to reflect in their most recent market value updates. Especially the Americans.
The year is coming to an end and while the club seasons around the world are far from over, many Concacaf players’ stand-out ‘end-of-year grades’ have been determined by what they did at the end of the last 2022/23 campaign and the start of the current one.
Now, the notable performances of many throughout the calendar year — for both club and country — have directly affected their value in the transfer market, both for better and for worse.
According to Transfermarkt and their latest update, the last one before the end of the year, five Concacaf players in the top list had an increase in their value in comparison to earlier in the season and will be dragging this value into 2024.
Their summer moves in the transfer window, as well as their national team achievements are the main factors in their increment, with a majority of USMNT players leading the statistic. Let's take a look at who they are.
