Most valuable footballers in the world for 2016 – The new year means different things to different people. For some who choose to make resolutions, the beginning of a new year presents opportunities to reach for goals that were not achieved the prior year.

Perhaps the happiest individuals in all the land to see the calendar change from December to January are the parents who have had to deal with their children being home for the Christmas and New Year’s holiday break.
As it pertains to world football, the new year brings with it the opening of another transfer window and also a time when player valuations are updated by sources such as the CIES Football Observatory. Even casual fans who first learned about worldwide transfers thanks to recent editions of FIFA could probably produce a solid guess as to who is the most valuable footballer in the world at the start of 2016. It may surprise you to learn, however who is second on the list. That player could very well rise up to the top spot before the end of the year due to several factors, one of which being that he has silenced critics with his performances during the current campaign.
20. Paulo Dybala: €62.5 Million ($68.28 Million)
It is not rare to read that a talented 22-year-old has a “promising future” for a huge club such as Juventus. As was pointed out on the Black & White & Read All Over blog, Dybala’s is proving his worth as one of the best in Serie A right now. No disrespect meant to the CIES Football Observatory, but you can take the listed valuation for Dybala and toss it right out the window. Juventus are currently not keen on selling, and for good reason, and €62.5 million probably would not be enough to change things. A club such as Barcelona had better be prepared to spend and spend big.
