Ex-man united player's value has plummeted despite champions league final berth

MATTEO DARMIAN WILL BE PART OF INTER MILAN'S CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL SQUAD TO FACE PSG ON SATURDAY NIGHT, BUT HIS TRANSFER VALUE HAS PLUMMETED SINCE LEAVING MANCHESTER UNITED 09:45, 31

May 2025 Despite a challenging stint at Manchester United, Matteo Darmian's depreciated transfer value hasn't hindered him from reaching the Champions League final with Inter

Milan. The Italian right-back was snapped up from Torino in 2015 for a respectable £12.7million and kicked off his United career with an impressive 1-0 Premier League victory over Tottenham

under Louis van Gaal. He was awarded the club's Player of the Month for that August. In the ensuing years, Darmian proved to be a reliable squad player, contributing to FA Cup, League

Cup and Europa League triumphs under various managers. While he wasn't always the first name on the team sheet, he carved out a commendable top-flight career as a versatile full-back.

Darmian bid farewell to Old Trafford in 2019, returning to his native Italy and Serie A with Parma. After a year of solid performances, he moved to Inter on loan, before making the switch

permanent at the end of that season. Since then, Darmian has emerged as an unsung hero in Inter's relentless pursuit of silverware, clinching two Scudettos, three Italian Super Cups and

two Coppa Italia trophies, reports the Mirror. Now, he has the chance to add the Champions League to his list of accolades when Inter face PSG on Saturday night. However, he'll enter

the match with his value significantly lower than during his time with the Red Devils. Article continues below Upon joining United, Darmian was valued at £12.5m, a figure that mirrored the

fee United paid for him, as per Transfermarkt. However, his value depreciated over time due to age and a lack of significant impact at Old Trafford, dropping to £10m in 2018. When Darmian

transferred to Parma at the ripe age of 30 in 2020, his market value stood at £7m. Just prior to his move to Inter at 31, this value took a nosedive to around £3m. This is where the

Champions League finalist's value remains today, at the age of 35. Interestingly, Darmian won't be the only former United player in Inter's squad reaching the showpiece, as

Henrikh Mkhitaryan will also be present in Munich. United acquired the Armenian in 2016 for £26m from German outfit Borussia Dortmund, despite his estimated value at the time being £31m.

Mkhitaryan's form at Old Trafford was respectable, and he featured regularly under Jose Mourinho before moving to Arsenal as part of the deal that saw Alexis Sanchez head in the

opposite direction. Article continues below Upon joining the Gunners, he was valued at £29m, though this dropped to £21m the following year before he secured a transfer to Roma. There, his

value would decrease again, despite the fact that he won the Conference League. By 2022, when he transferred to Inter, his value had dropped to just £7m. As of this year, at the age of 36,

the Armenian is valued at a mere £3.3m. Despite this, he has amassed an impressive array of silverware over his illustrious career, including a Scudetto, the Carabao Cup and the Europa

League.
