Top 20 players such as Kylian Mbappe, Mohamed Salah, Eden Hazard and Neymar will see less of a value decline. FMTNews PlayerValue Covid19 FinancialFairPlay

LONDON: The suspension of football leagues across Europe due to the Covid-19 pandemic will see overall player value drop by €6.6 billion, or about 18%, in the transfer market, KPMG’s global head of sports Andrea Sartori said.

“Players with high values in Europe — the top 20-30 players — are retaining value to a greater extent than other players. Sartori said the pandemic would not affect the length of new player contracts but salary negotiations in the next renewal cycle would be affected while free agents would not necessarily be more in demand.

Club finances have taken a major hit without matchday revenue for three months, and Sartori said Financial Fair Play rules may have to be eased to allow clubs to get back on their feet.
