With Kaizer Chiefs promising to sign more top players in the coming months, it's surprising to see which players in the current squad have the highest value.
According to transfermarkt.co.za, the highest value players in the squad are defenders Reeve Frosler, Spiwe Msimango and midfielder Siphesihle Ndlovu. Each player is valued at approximately R18.59 million.
For comparison, that trio wouldn't crack the top-15 most valuable players in the current Mamelodi Sundowns squad. The most valuable player in the Sundowns squad is Lucas Ribeiro at R51.54 million.
In fact, the total squad value of Chiefs is around R303 million. That's less than half of that of Sundowns' whose squad worth stands at a whopping R744 million.
Meanwhile, the pair of forwards Ashley du Preez and defender Thabiso Monyane are tied as the fourth most valuable players in the Chiefs squad with a price tag of R17.55 million.
The 21-year-old midfielder Mduduzi Shabalala is the youngest player in the top-10 most valuable players with a worth of R14.46 million.
Defenders Bradley Cross and Rishwin Dortley are worth the same at R13.42 million.
Centre-back Inacio Miguel and left winger Pule Mmodi complete the top-10 with values of R12.38 million each. Mmodi is also the oldest player in the Chiefs top-10 at 32.
