Harry Kane, Beth Mead, Declan Rice, Fran Kirby: The most valuable England XIs
England may have failed to secure a victory at the Nations League last month, but the Lionesses are impressing at Euro 2022.
After beating Austria 1-0 and thrashing Norway 8-0, England have qualified for the quarter-finals as winners of Group A, without even playing this evening’s match against Northern Ireland.
With a squad packed full of star players, many have now tipped the Lionesses to go all the way. But what is their most valuable starting XI? And how does this compare to the men’s most valuable starting XI?
Using evaluations from Transfermarkt and Soccerdonna, we worked it out.
GK: Ellie Roebuck (Manchester City) – £76,500
