Player Market Value
Track Marco Palestra's transfer value changes and career value history
Marco Palestra is Cagliari's Gold-tier Engine. At 21 years old, the Italian youth product is building his body of work in Serie A, showing the relentless energy required to succeed at the highest level while gaining vital experience away from parent club Atalanta.
His 27 appearances this term tell the story of a highly trusted midfield presence, logging over 2,300 minutes on the pitch. While currently going through a quiet spell in his immediate form, his underlying profile reveals a unique setup for a box-to-box operator who has chipped in with four goal contributions over the campaign. Palestra boasts an exceptional Dribbling dimension, comfortably bypassing opponents in tight areas. This elite ball-carrying ability earns him DRIBBLER recognition, while his transitional vision also secures him ARCHITECT status. He remains the connective tissue for his side, covering ground and driving the team forward even when his direct attacking output cools down.
The broader trajectory remains highly encouraging for the young Italian. With his market value surging to €25M, the dynamic midfielder is proving his worth in the top flight. Whether dictating play on loan or preparing for his next career step, his overall stock continues to rise.
