Engels Leads the Way

Leading the charge in market value gains is Arne Engels of Celtic, now recognized as Scotland’s most valuable footballer. His value has increased by 8 million euros to 18 million euros, surpassing Mikey Moore of Rangers, currently valued at 16 million euros.

Röhl’s Impact at Rangers

Since taking office in October, Röhl has instilled a renewed sense of optimism at Ibrox. The team has averaged 1.93 points per game in the Premiership, suffering only one defeat against league leaders Heart of Midlothian. The gap between Rangers and Hearts has narrowed from 13 to six points, positioning Röhl’s side in third place, one point behind Celtic and four ahead of Motherwell.

Naderi’s Rising Value

The impact extends to individual players, including recent arrival Ryan Naderi, who joined Rangers from FC Hansa Rostock in the winter transfer window for a fee that made him the most expensive third division exit in history. Naderi’s market value has increased by 3.3 million euros to 4.5 million euros.

“Not too much can be said about Naderi yet, as his time in Scotland has only just begun. However, when he was in the starting line-up for Rangers, he was convincing – especially with his two assists in the essential 4-2 win against Hearts. He could prove to be a more consistent goalscorer for the Ibrox club, especially as his striker colleague Youssef Chermiti So far, it’s mainly been in the large games. Naderi’s increase in market value is primarily due to the transfer fee that Rangers paid for him in January – it ultimately turned out to be higher than expected. However, the club clearly sees great potential in the young attacker.”

Celtic’s Struggles and Market Value Declines

Although Celtic remains the most valuable squad in the league (approximately 146 million euros), they feature prominently among the biggest losers in the market value update. Cameron Carter-Vickers experienced a decline of 3 million euros to 10 million euros, while Daizen Maeda and Reo Hatate both saw their values decrease by 2 million euros.

Looking Ahead

The Scottish Premiership’s market value landscape is clearly shifting, with Danny Röhl’s Rangers demonstrating significant progress. The coming months will be crucial as both Rangers and Celtic vie for supremacy, both on and off the pitch.
