Human Development Index (HDI), composite of education levels of people, per capita income and health status is believed to be the best way to compare countries. Many also believe that there is a correlation between the economy of a country and its performance in sports. However, this piece is not about revealing the best or worst, winners or losers, it is just about individual performers of the world’s most popular sport and their market value based on the data of Transfermarkt – reference site for fans of player ratings and statistics – which last week updated market value of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Georgian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Serie A club Napoli and the Georgia national team, adding additional EUR 25 million to his market cost.
