Cies, the international football observatory, has drawn up the ranking of the Under 23s whose market value has increased the most in recent months
Power to young people. More and more, in today's football, we are moving towards the growth of talents, to be thrown into the fray as soon as possible: without haste, but without fear of age. And the results in some cases are bearing the desired fruits: just take a step back to Real Madrid-Manchester City , with the two clubs that have cultivated the talents of players such as Vinicius , Rodrygo, Valverde and Foden and are now reaping what they have sown. In these hours the Cies , an international football observatory, has drawn up the ranking of the 100 footballers under 23 years old whose market value has increased the most in the last 6 months, and until 1 April 2024.
The 10 most grown up young people: Yildiz with Endrick and Yamal
Taking age as a criterion and therefore going from youngest to oldest, the top 10 also includes Kenan Yildiz , a young Turkish talent now permanently in the Juventus first team . Going in order, always keeping age as the main measure, in first place is Lamine Yamal from Barcelona . We then move on to Endrick , currently at Palmeiras but future husband of Real Madrid , closing the top 10 with the very young talent of Bayern Munich , Mathys Tel . These top 10 in the ranking, with relative age and market value - established by Cies according to its algorithm - and how much the latter has increased in the last 6 months.
LAMINE YAMAL - Team: Barcelona. Age: 16.7 years. Value: 145 million (+134)

The others from Serie A on the list
It's not just Yildiz in the rankings among those who play in Serie A. Keeping the criterion of going from youngest to youngest, in 14th place with 19.1 years we find Valentin Carboni , currently at Monza but owned by Inter . The Argentine is valued at 18 million, with a growth of +14. Then there is Michael Kayode of Fiorentina : the Italian is in 22nd place with his 19.7 years. Value? 28 million, an exponential increase of +24. Following closely behind is another Italian player, this time owned by Atalanta : Giorgio Scalvini is placed in 33rd place with 20.3 years and a market value of 95 million (+17 in the last 6 months).
Matias Soulé cannot be missing from the list , an Argentinian playing for Frosinone but whose contract is owned by Juventus . Exactly 21 years, the gialloblù is in 46th place, with a valuation that has grown by 13 million. In 64th place, thanks to his 21.7 years, is Matteo Ruggeri of Atalanta , in 73rd Edoardo Bove of Roma, 21.9 years. Right at the bottom of the ranking, 97th, is Joshua Zirkzee of Bologna at 22.9 years old. Special mention for Destiny Udogie , an Italian who does not play in Serie A: the Tottenham full-back is 53rd at 21.4 years old.
