Had a look at the Transfer values of Leeds starting line up on Tuesday night (I was getting bored last night). Takenfrom www.transfermarkt.co.uk


Peacock- Farrell (Free)

Ayling (783k)
Jansson (3.6M)
Cooper (675k)
Douglas (3M)

Phillips (U23)
Kilch (Loan)

Saiz Alonso(3.2M)
Harrison (Loan)
Alioski (2.25M)

Roberts (2.6M)


Basically the defence was valued at 7.6M, midfield 5.4M, strikers 2.6M. Total Value15.5M. This Leeds team was with out top scorer Roofe 3.1M and Bamford 7.9M (injured).

A lot of the squad have come through Leeds U23s or loaned from Premiership clubs such as Chelsea or Man City or abroad.

Many North Enders on the forum are pointing the finger at Ridsdale and Hemmings for not spending on players but Leeds show what we are up against in the transfer market. There three strikers costing some 13M.

I don’t think they are probably the biggest transfer spenders in the Championship this year either. I don't know what there wage bill is but probably double ours.

There is an impression that North End are falling behind after over achieving last year to finish two points of the play offs. We don’t have a U23 set up and the new Ingol Training Ground looks far off so at moment things are appearing bit bleak.

TransferMarkt has Ben Pearson valued at £1m, I have no idea why people use it as a reference point.

In the year to summer 2017 they paid 18.5m compared to our 11.5m in wages

Their turnover is nearly 3 times ours, 34m vs 13m ish and gate receipts, as you'd expect, are higher and account for about 4m of this difference

What is interesting is the Merchandising income, we made 104 grand, Leeds over 5.7m. Shows what we're up against I suppose

Their club shop is quite impressive though

Yes tend to agree just had at a look at the TransferMarkt transfer fees for the current PNE squad. There is not much information as a lot of North Ends Transfer dealings are undisclosed or not available to press or supporters. It has roughly the correct fees for Rudd/Johnson/Burke but I reckon they are missing some fees as Storey was widely speculated at least 750k and Maguire about 200k and I think we paid a fee for Harrop/Hughes too ?

BenPearonIsGod you are correct that their current market values are laughable to value Pearson current market value at 1M is way off. He is North Ends best player and premiership clubs were rumoured to be sniffing so I reckon he should be valued at around 8-10M ps I dont know where this 77M valuation of the current squad at the recent Fans Forum came from too, possible auditors values/estimate

But its common knowledge that we don't spend money on transfer fees and was just curious about the cost of table topping Leeds squad cost. North Ends starting team on Tuesday probably cost around 1m to 1.3m which is still cheap for the Championship.

What font is that please pal?
 
That site is garbage for transfer valuations, literally garbage.

Just punch numbers into a calculator at random for a few seconds whilst with your eyes closed and you will probably get more accurate figures.
 
Just shows what it takes to compete in the championship these days.
13 million for three strikers is now good value. Wolves paid 15 million for one midfielder last season.
Also feel PNE are missing out on merchandise sales after farming out the club shop to Avtec or whoever it is that runs it.
I remember when you buy curtains, bedding and a whole range of PNE stuff, far cry from the the few shirts etc available now.

And ours is woeful and owned by Nike who are taking the piss kit wise with the same body/shoulders templates every year since Wembley and producing very little other merchandise whilst limiting what the club themselves can sell from it. Plus due to the deal we signed with them I believe we get sod all from kit sales.
