The world-famous football website Transfermarkt, with its ever-increasing transfer fees, sets records every year, also in terms of market values. Here is the 2018 Sliding XI based on their market values.
Players downgraded to lower market value are mostly due to their age (Messi for example), injury (Neuer) and form (Sanchez).

Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich): -€13m to €22m;
Defenders:
Filipe Luis (Atletico Madrid): -€13m to €5m;

Jerome Boateng (Bayern Munich): -€15m to €30m;
Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid): -€20m to €30m;

Thomas Muller (Bayern Munich): -€20m to €40m;
Arturo Vidal (Bayern Munich/Barcelona): -€15m to €20m;

don't be harsh on including Messi guys it's common because every players market value will decrease with increase in age so that happened to cr7 and now to Messi,what do you expect the market value to be 200m when they reach 40+ that would be a joke,I guess it will further decrease in 2019 and in 2020 and both the legends will have market value under 80m when they reach thier 35+
