West Ham squad valuation disputed

Claims that West Ham’s squad is worth €259m (£231m) according to research published in the 47th edition of the CIES Football Observatory have been disputed by some supporters over night saying the squad must be worth much more than that figure.

Website Transfer Market which is known to have low market valuations of players totals the value at £299m but many believe it is way beyond that figure too.
