There are 16 teams participating in the 2025 AFC U17 Championship finals, but 14/16 teams have no transfer value (according to Transfermarkt). Surprisingly, U17 Vietnam is among the 2 teams valued by Transfermarkt. The other team in the same group with U17 Vietnam is Australia.
Specifically, according to Transfermarkt, the total transfer value of the U17 Asian Cup is 225,000 euros. This is also the combined transfer value of the U17 Australia and U17 Vietnam teams. Of which, the transfer value of U17 Australia is 175,000, and Vietnam is 50,000 euros.
In the list of 23 Australian U17 players participating in the 2025 AFC U17 Championship, only 2 players are valued: attacking midfielder Haine Eames, currently playing for Central Coast Mariners (175,000 euros) and central midfielder Quinn MacNicol, currently playing for Brisbane Roar (50,000 euros).
On the U17 Vietnam team side, the price of 50,000 euros comes entirely from the value of striker Tran Gia Bao (Hoang Anh Gia Lai ). It is worth mentioning that Gia Bao was the one who scored the goal that helped U17 Vietnam draw 1-1 with Japan in the second match of Group B on April 7.
There are 368 players in the 2025 AFC U17 Championship, but only 3 are valued by Transfermarkt. The reason other teams have not been valued is because most of the players come from school football or are only in the youth teams of clubs, not yet playing professionally.
As for Gia Bao, he is a player currently playing for the first team of Hoang Anh Gia Lai. In the 2024-2025 V-League, he has played 3 times and scored 1 goal for Hoang Anh Gia Lai. Not only that, Gia Bao also holds the record as the youngest player to play and score in the history of the V-League (16 and 256 days). Therefore, Gia Bao's valuation is not surprising.
Similarly, Haine Eames and Quinn MacNicol both played professional football in Australia. Haine Eames is considered a rare talent in Australian football.
