Yesterday, the Greek National Team achieved a major victory, convincingly thrashing Scotland 0-3 on their home turf in Glasgow – and that’s no exaggeration. An even greater win was secured a few months ago, when the “blue and white” claimed a historic away victory at Wembley against the star-studded England side, in memory of George Baldock. However, the most significant win of recent times belongs to Ivan Jovanović himself, who has reignited the public’s enthusiasm for the National Team. Above all, fans now eagerly await their next game.

The lineup chosen by Ivan Jovanović for the match against Scotland was a delightful surprise to those watching, as it was the youngest in the history of the Greek national squad, boasting an average age of just 22.7 years.

This is a sign of what’s to come with this new generation – something further confirmed by their enormous market value, which is expected to hit a “limit up” soon.

For cases like these, the best and easiest tool is Transfermarkt, which lists each player’s current market value in the footballing stock exchange. While this figure doesn’t always reflect the exact valuation clubs place on their players, it offers a clear snapshot of the current trends around them.

The youngest-ever starting XI fielded by our national team has a market value of €133.3 million! And that’s without factoring in updated valuations for players like Karetsas, Tzolis, Pavlidis, Zafeiris, or Koulierakis in 2025.

Which means, once those updates are made, the total amount will likely surpass €150 million.

The Market Value of the Greek National Team’s Starting XI

• Konstantis Tzolakis: €8,000,000
• Giorgos Vagiannidis: €7,000,000
• Konstantinos Mavropanos: €17,000,000
• Konstantinos Koulierakis: €15,000,000
• Dimitris Giannoulis: €2,800,000
• Christos Mouzakitis: €7,500,000
• Christos Zafeiris: €11,000,000
• Konstantinos Karetsas: €7,000,000
• Giannis Konstantelias: €17,000,000
• Christos Tzolis: €18,000,000
• Vangelis Pavlidis: €23,000,000

To get a sense of just how impressive that number is, it’s worth noting that in the ranking for the Greek Super League, Olympiacos tops the list with a squad value of €117 million, while Panathinaikos is second with €102 million.
