Championship most valuable players table includes West Brom, Watford, Middlesbrough and Norwich City men - gallery

This new table showcases the top 25 most valuable players in the Championship, with a few surprises near the top.

The Championship certainly cannot match the Premier League for immense wealth but it’s still one of the most competitive divisions in the world, enabling top talent to emerge.

Whether it be directly from academies or from clubs acting as stepping stones, there are plenty of wonderkids that have set the English second tier alight.

It’s typically those players with the youth and potential on their side that end up going for the biggest transfer fees, but there are others who build up a hefty market value simply down to their scintillating form, regardless of age.

As you’d expect, Burnley and Sheffield United had some of the most valuable assets last season but now they’re gone, it’s opened up other sides in the division to have the bragging rights.

Courtesy of data from Transfermarkt, here are the individuals with the highest market value from the 2022/23 Championship season, excluding the promoted clubs. Flick through the pages for a full run-through.
