When Andrés Gómez landed in São Januário last August, the stated goal was to regain space on Seleção Colombiana after being erased by Rennes of France. A year and a little later, forward is the tenth most valuable player in Brazilian football according to Cies Football Observatory and closes the account with an appreciation of more than three times over what Vasco paid.

The investment and the jump in value

In January, Vasco exercised the purchase option provided in contract and acquired 60% of the Colombian's economic rights for just over €4.5 million equivalent to about €7.5 million per year.100% The Cies Football Observatory study now estimates the player at €24.5 million (R$ 144,8 mIn other words, more than three times the amount spent by Malta.

In the list of Brasileirão's most valuable, Gómez appears behind names like Flaco López (53.9 million euros) and Vitor Roque (53.2 million), but ahead of Martinelli (24.9 million) in the full top-10:

World Cup as a showcase

At the World Cup this year, forward entered the second half of the match against Uzbekistan in the group stage and integrates the plan to renew the Colombian squad for the next cycle.

Figures supporting the increase

Under the command of Pedro Emanuel, the Colombian is the team's top scorer in the season alongside Thiago Mendes with eight goals and leads the roster finishes: they are 114, against 69 Johan Rojas and 68 Puma Rodríguez, according to data from Gato Mestre.

Where does it stop?

The Vasco now holds only the rights of the player, and post-Cup valuation puts the club before a classic equation: holding an offensive pillar of the team or negotiating in future window for a value much higher than invested.
