Espanyol's 117 million seem from another planet when compared to the two least valuable squads: Logroñés and Mirandés, with a market value of 4.65 and 4.23 million, respectively.
RdT and Marc Roca quadruple Mirandés
However, the final value of the blue and white squad can to vary depending on the outputs. Their five most sought-after footballers are in danger. It is about Raúl de Tomás, Marc Roca (valued at 16 million each, a figure that is already four times that of the entire Mirandés team), Sergi darder (eleven), Adrià Pedrosa (nine and Leandro Cabrera (eight).
