Fina verdict

A perfect night for Barcelona and Hansi Flick. After a defeat in their first match, they are back with a win. This emphatic win will surely boost their confidence as they look to regain their Champions League glory. 

 

Lewandowski scored a brace, Raphinha worked like tireless horse, Pedri was innovative and Cubarsi was top class too. Good game time for Frankie de Jong as well, as he returned after nearly a gap of six months. Flick had the chance to rotate some players. 

 

Meantime Young Boys, except for one or two times, did not get any chance against this Barca team. They have now concedded 8 goals in two games and have not scored one yet. A lot of things to worry about for the Swiss team now.

Final verdict

It was a crazy match indeed. Barcelona started well. Mallorca started in the worst possible way.

Morlanes received two yellow cards to get sent off, while Muriqui was shown a direct red card for a high boot on Joan Garcia. 

Mallorca did well to concede only one more goal despite being down to nine men. 

Lamine scored the late goal and bagged the player of the match for one goal and one assist.

20 Most expensive teenagers in football transfer history [2025] | sportzpoint.com

Whenever a new transfer window arrives, with more money coming into the game, we see more spending and expensive buys from clubs around the world. However, along with experienced and proven footballers, football clubs always tend to buy new, exciting teenage footballers, even before they become stars.

Today, in this article, we will list the 20 most expensive teenagers in football transfer history.

20 Most expensive teenagers in football transfer history

Please note that the fee is based on Transfermarkt's data and is accurate as of August 7, 2025.

20. Javier Saviola โ€“ River Plate to FC Barcelona โ€“ 2001 โ€“ โ‚ฌ35.90m (Age 19)

Javier Saviola's transfer to FC Barcelona from River Plate was the record fee for any teenager till it was later broken by Wayne Rooney. After scoring 24 goals in 41 matches, besides his 11 assists for River Plate, while winning the Argentine league in consecutive years, Saviola became the star FC Barcelona were looking for.

However, the transfer did not work that well for both him and the club as he was loaned out many times and went to play for Real Madrid in future as well. Saviola was recently the assistant manager of the Barcelona U19 team as well.

19. Josko Gvardiol โ€“ Dinamo Zagreb to RB Leipzig โ€“ 2021 โ€“ โ‚ฌ36.8m (Age 19)

A Croatian defensive prodigy, Gvardiol impressed with his versatility and speed by playing as a ball-playing centre-back and left-back. His performances for Dinamo Zagreb and Croatiaโ€™s national team stirred RB Leipzig to break their transfer record.

Along with skill, Josko Gvardiol's physical strength and tactical intelligence made Leipzig pay โ‚ฌ36.8m for the defender in 2021.

Two years later, Leipzig sold Gavrdiol to Manchester City for a whopping โ‚ฌ90.00m.

18. Wayne Rooney โ€“ Everton to Manchester United โ€“ 2004 โ€“ โ‚ฌ37m (Age 18)

One of Englandโ€™s greatest ever talents, Rooney was signed for a then-record fee for a teenager. His all-around attacking prowess, vision, and finishing skill justified the huge investment.

In the 2003/04 season for Everton, Rooney had already scored nine goals in the Premier League as a teenager, which made Sir Alex Ferguson sign the youngster for a record โ‚ฌ37m.

Rooney became Manchester Unitedโ€™s all-time leading scorer with 253 goals in 559 official games, winning five Premier League titles and a Champions League trophy.

A highly rated left-back, Shaw was signed for his blend of strong defensive skills and speed. He was seen as the next big defender from England after John Terry, as he had done quite well at Southampton and England U-21s then.

Luke Shaw was bought by Manchester United in 2014 with a transfer fee of โ‚ฌ37.5 million, making him one of the most expensive teenage footballers ever.

Despite serious injury setbacks, he has developed into a dependable member of Unitedโ€™s backline since then and continues to be a member of Ruben Amorim's team.

16. Yankuba Minteh โ€“ Newcastle United to Brighton โ€“ 2024 โ€“ โ‚ฌ38.8m (Age 19)

A direct, pacey Gambian forward, Yankuba Minteh, earned his big move as Brighton always invests in young, aggressive talents to shape their Premier League competitiveness and future development.

Newcastle United were the first to sign him, but sent him on loan to Feyenoord, where he scored 11 goals and had five assists. Brighton then signed him permanently in the 2024/25 season, for โ‚ฌ38.8m, making him one of the most expensive teenagers in football transfer history.

Last season, he had 12 goal contributions for Brighton in the Premier League.

In 2024, Sportz Point named Minteh among the top 10 future stars of the Premier League.

15. Dejan Kulusevski โ€“ Atalanta to Juventus โ€“ 2019/20 โ€“ โ‚ฌ39m (Age 19)

Dejan Kulusevski, the Swedish winger, scored 10 goals and assisted 9 times in Serie A in the 2019-20 season, leading Juventus to pay a premium to have him in the Winter transfer window.

Although he was brought to Turin with a โ‚ฌ39m transfer fee from Atalanta BC, he was soon loaned out to Parma and Tottenham Hotspur. In 2023, he was eventually bought by Spurs with a transfer fee of โ‚ฌ30.00 million.

14. Fabio Silva โ€“ Porto to Wolves โ€“ 2020/21 โ€“ โ‚ฌ40m (Age 18)

Portuguese striker Fabio Silva came with impressive youth goal-scoring records for FC Porto U19 and the FC Porto team from the 2018-2020 season. Seeing his talent, Wolves paid a significant fee of โ‚ฌ40m, hoping that his technical finishing and physicality would translate well into Premier League success.

However, he was soon loaned to various clubs. Last season, he joined the team after spending a season at UD Las Palmas on loan.

13. Vitor Roque โ€“ Athletico Paranaense to FC Barcelona โ€“ 2024 โ€“ โ‚ฌ40m (Age 19)

Barcelona acquired Roque to bolster their attack during a rebuilding phase. Known for his goal instinct, technical skill, and agile movement, Roque had scored 21 goals in 45 games for the Brazilian club Paranaense to attract a โ‚ฌ40m bid from the Catalan club.

However, after only 2 goals in 16 games for the Spanish, he was sent back on loan to Real Betis and eventually signed for Palmeiras last season.

12. Archie Gray โ€“ Leeds United to Tottenham Hotspur โ€“ 2024 โ€“ โ‚ฌ41.25m (Age 19)

A promising English defensive midfielder, Archie Gray, made a high-profile resume after winning the U21 Euros and doing well for Leeds United.

This helped Tottenham sign him for โ‚ฌ41.25m in 2024 as they continued to focus on developing young home-grown talent.

Archie played 28 Premier League and 11 Europa League games for Spurs in his first season at the club.

Dutch defender Jorrel Hato, who came through Ajaxโ€™s ranks, secured a big move to Chelsea. With Enzo Maresca and Chelseaโ€™s long-term strategic vision for rebuilding their defence, Hato was supposed to be the next big thing for the Blues.

The left-back has a knack for scoring and contributing to goals as well. He had eight goal contributions in the 2024/25 Eredivisie for Ajax.

With a โ‚ฌ45 million coming on 14th August 2025, Argentine U21 star Franco Mastantuono is all set to be the most expensive teenager in the football transfer window of the 2025/26 season.

The right-winger had a successful 2024/25 season with River Plate, scoring seven times in 22 games along with four assists, which led him to make his senior debut for Argentina as well.

9. Vinicius Jr. โ€“ Flamengo to Real Madrid โ€“ 2018 โ€“ โ‚ฌ45m (Age 18)

Real Madrid and Brazilian youngsters have always been a love affair made in heaven. After scoring 10 goals and assisting four times in 32 goals for Flamengo in the 2017-18 season, Vinicius Jr.โ€™s electrifying pace, dribbling, and flair made him a valued acquisition for Real Madrid.

Vinicius was brought to Real Madrid for โ‚ฌ45m, which made him one of the most expensive teenagers in world football of the last decade.

Despite a slow start, he developed into a key player, helping Madrid win three La Liga titles and two UEFA Champions League trophies.

As I was saying, Real Madrid and Brazilian teenage stars stand in a love affair made in heaven.

Following Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo was signed to strengthen Real Madridโ€™s attack with a versatile winger capable of playing across the frontline. Rodrygo had already done well for Santos in the previous season, which caught the eyes of Los Blancos, and soon he was signed for โ‚ฌ45m

Since then, he has won three La Liga titles and two Champions League titles with the club, while scoring 68 crucial goals and providing 51 assists.

Now it would be boring for you if I repeated the same thing. But what can I do if we have three back-to-back, same transfer patterns on our list of the most expensive teenagers in football transfer history?

Hailed as one of Brazilโ€™s brightest prospects, Endrickโ€™s prolific youth scoring and sharp finishing caught the eye of Real Madrid.

Endrick was brought to Bernabeu by Carlo Ancelotti after he helped Palmeiras win the Brazilian league in successive previous seasons.

6. Anthony Martial โ€“ Monaco to Manchester United โ€“ 2015 โ€“ โ‚ฌ60m (Age 19)

Martialโ€™s dazzling speed, dribbling, and flair from France made Manchester United break their teenage transfer record. After a great season with AS Monaco, where he scored 12 goals and provided five assists, United broke every record to bring him to Old Trafford.

He had an immediate impact with 17 Premier League goals in his debut season, though injuries and form fluctuations have tempered his career since.

5. Leny Yoro โ€“ Lille to Manchester United โ€“ 2024 โ€“ โ‚ฌ62m (Age 18)

Manchester United invested heavily in Leny Yoroโ€™s defensive attributes, physicality, and maturity beyond his years. Yoro was signed by United under Erik ten Hag for โ‚ฌ62m, a record transfer fee for a teenage defender.

He still continues to be one of the pillars of the United defence under new boss Ruben Amorim.

4. Romeo Lavia โ€“ Southampton to Chelsea โ€“ 2023 โ€“ โ‚ฌ62.1m (Age 19)

Belgian midfielder Romeo Laviaโ€™s combination of technical skill, tactical intelligence, and defensive contributions enticed Chelsea to pay a club-record fee of โ‚ฌ62.1m for a teenager.

Lavia was first discovered by Manchester City, where he flourished for the Manchester City U-21 and U-23 teams. Then, he did well for Southampton to be able to attract a large bid from Chelsea.

3. Matthijs de Ligt โ€“ Ajax to Juventus โ€“ 2019 โ€“ โ‚ฌ85.5m (Age 19)

Matthijs De Ligt captained a young Ajax side to the 2018/19 Champions League semifinals and even scored a decisive goal for them in the quarter-finals. Juventus rewarded him with one of the highest fees ever for a teenage defender when he was bought for a record fee for a teenage defender, โ‚ฌ85.5m.

After spending seasons with Juventus and FC Bayern Munich, the defender signed for Manchester United in 2024, under former Ajax boss Erik ten Hag.

Touted as a generational talent, Joao Felix was signed as a creative attacking replacement for Antoine Griezmann by Atletico Madrid in 2019 for a club record โ‚ฌ127.2 million.

Felix had scored 20 goals in 43 games for Benfica, along with 11 assists, before joining the Spanish club. However, he could not justify the price tag and soon found himself playing for different clubs.

At 25, he has now signed for Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr FC.

In the 2016/17 season, Mbappe scored 28 goals and had 14 assists in 46 games for Monaco, which had set him up as one of the greatest footballing talents on earth. Among those 28 goals, 6 were in the Champions League in just 9 games.

PSG thought of Mbappe as an investment as they looked to win the UEFA Champions League for the first time.

PSGโ€™s record fee of โ‚ฌ180m paid off as he became Ligue 1โ€™s all-time top scorer, a World Cup winner, and one of the worldโ€™s best players.
