Transfermarkt is a German-based[1] website owned by Axel Springer SE that has footballing information, such as scores, results, statistics, transfer news, and fixtures.[2] According to the IVW, it is in the top 25 most visited German websites, and one of the largest sport websites after kicker.de.[3]
The website has scores, results, transfer news, fixtures, and player values. Despite the player values, along with some other facts, being estimates,[4] researchers from the Centre for Economic Performance have found that the "rumours" of player transfers are largely accurate.[5]
These estimated player values are usually updated every few months, considering how the association football market works, these estimates might be slightly lower or higher than what a players' current form and therefore current value might suggest.
