While one competition seeks only economic advantage at all costs, another has become a talent pool this does not prevent players from being exported to European football, whatever profit that means and even so, they have made historic transfers to the ‘Old Continent’. Next, we’ll go over the most expensive sales in each European football league.

As many of us have assumed, ‘El Chucky’ Lozano was the player sold with the highest value in Liga MX, when in 2017 he transferred to PSV Eindhoven from Tuzos del Pachuca. Years later, Lozano himself, having ‘broken’ him in the Eredivisie, was sold to Napoli for 45 million euros, also making him the most expensive Mexican footballer of all time.

MX League:

Hirving Lozano: 15 million euros from Pachuca to PSV.

Edson Álvarez: 15 million euros from America to Ajax.

Diego Lainez: 15 million euros from America to Betis

Héctor Herrera: 11 million euros from Pachuca to FC Porto.

Raúl Jiménez: 10.5 million euros from America to Atlético de Madrid.

Javier Hernandez: 8.4 million euros from Chivas to Manchester United.

Erik Gutiérrez: 8 million euros from Pachuca to PSV.

Diego Reyes: 7 million euros from America to FC Porto.

Andrés Guardado: €6.5m from Atlas to Deportivo La Coruña.

Jozy Altidore: 8 million euros from New York Red Bull to Villarreal.

Zach Steffen: 7.5 million euros from the Columbus Crew to Manchester City.

As we can see, all players on the Liga MX side are Mexicanwhile of MLS Almirón is Paraguayan, Davies Canadian and Buksa Polish, which speaks a little better about the development of youth in Mexican football, however, with the recent “wave” of American football players sold in Europe, surely in In few years, all the members of this select club will be of North American origin.
