Ryan Gravenberch has seen his market valuation rise the highest after a sensational start to the season for Liverpool. In new figures released by renowned website TransferMarkt (TM), the Reds midfielder's value has increased by €15million (£12m) to €55m (£45m).

Arne Slot's side saw their efforts to sign Martin Zubimendi fail after the midfielder opted to stay at his boyhood club Real Sociedad. As a result, there were question marks over whether Liverpool needed a midfield addition in the summer, but the Dutchman has put the doubters to bed after a superb campaign.

His midfield partner, Curtis Jones, is another who has welcomed a rise in the market valuations from the website, seeing his price rise by €10m to €45million (£37m). Although, it is worth noting that these are estimations and not what the club may value the player at.

Luis Diaz (£70m), Alexis Mac Allister (£66m), Cody Gakpo (£49m), Ibrahima Konate (£41m) and Conor Bradley (£16m) have all seen their valuations rise by €5m (£4m). So too Trent Alexander-Arnold - who's market value now stands at €75m (£62m) as he faces contract uncertainty.

Caoimhin Kelleher has faced speculation over his future after continuing his role as Liverpool's back-up goalkeeper. However, with Alisson Becker's injury record, it has afforded the Republic of Ireland international an extended run in the starting XI.

But with the impending arrival of Giorgi Mamardashvili - plus Premier League interest - it remains to be seen what the future holds for the Irish shot-stopper. In new TM figures, the 26-year-old's valuation is €22m (£18m) following a €2m (£1.6m) rise.

Darwin Nunez (£53m), Dominik Szoboszlai (£62m), Mohamed Salah (£45m) and Diogo Jota (£41m) are all non-movers in their valuation after the opening months of the season. But summer-signing Federico Chiesa has been the victim of an €8m decrease (to €22m, £18m) in value after struggling to make his way into the first-team during the opening five months of his career in England.

Virgil van Dijk is now valued around €28m, following a €2m decrease. First-teamers Alisson (now £20m from £22m, Andy Robertson (from £24m to £22m), Kostas Tsimikas (was £18m, now £16.5m) and Wataru Endo (now £9m, was £10m) have also seen their valuations diminish slightly.
