The Colombian National Team is already in Fort Lauderdale, venue for the friendly match this Sunday, January 16 at 5:30 pm (Colombian time) against Honduras, which serves as preparation for the auction of the Qualifiers heading to Qatar 2022 with Peru (L) and Argentina (V) as rivals of the next double day.
The novelty before the trip to Florida was the loss of Cristian Arango, who tested positive for covid-19 and left the Tricolor call, leaving in 19 players the final list that Reinaldo Rueda will have at his disposal to face the team led by Hernán Darío Gómez.
How much is the Friendly Selection worth?
Those summoned by Reinaldo Rueda are mostly from BetPlay League clubs. Yeimar Gómez, Juan Fernando Quintero and Yimmi Chará are the only ones on this list who perform in clubs abroad, so the most valuable Colombians worldwide are not available for the friendly since they are active with their respective teams.
According to data from Transfermarkt, portal specialized in transfers, the Colombian National Team for the friendly against Honduras is valued at 34.35 million euros, almost six million less than the price of Luis Díaz.
Juanfer, the most valuable of this Tricolor
Quintero came to this call as a Shenzhen FC player, but could leave it heading to another destination. Everything would be ready to return to River Plate, due to the crisis of the Chinese club that would allow him to be released and sign for several seasons with the Millionaire, a club that offers him more competition thinking about Qatar 2022. The ’10’ depreciated in China and is now valued at 6 M€, but it is enough to be the most expensive of this Selection.
1. Juan Fernando Quintero: €6M
2. Miguel Borja: 4 M€
3. Yeimar Gómez: 4 M€
4. Yimmi Chará: €3M
5. Andrés Román: 2.5 M €
Five players under one million euros
The youthful Yaser Asprilla and the goalkeeper Diego Novoa are the ones with the lowest value in this Selection. Each one has a price of 500 thousand euros. The others below one million euros are José Luis Chunga (€700,000), Germán Mera (€800,000) and Homer Matínez (€950,000).
