breaking news: former West Bromwich hero is now worth less than Yokuslu as a result of
Selling a star who is now worth less than Yokuslu was a brilliant move for West Brom.
These days, Okay Yokuslu is worth more than this former West Bromwich Albion hero.
Yokoslu-West-Brom
With four victories in their previous six league games, West Bromwich Albion is steadily gaining ground and appears to be a dark horse in the Championship promotion race.
With players like Okay Yokuslu shining in the middle of the park as a dependable anchor for the Baggies when the games have grown more intense, Carlos Corberan’s team is safe in their playoff berth.
Last time out, the Turkish midfielder helped Tom Fellows score the game’s first goal against Bristol City. The trusty Baggies number 35 continues to be a wise addition to a free transfer.
While Yokuslu’s contribution to West Brom’s success in terms of production and money value is rising, the transfer value of a previous show-stopper for the second-tier promotion chasers has decreased to less than that of the 30-year-old.
The record of Matheus Pereira at West Brom
Over his memorable two seasons with West Brom, Matheus Pereira would light up the Hawthorns and ignite the second division while serving as a beacon of hope during the Baggies’ miserable 2020–21 Premier League campaign.
After 77 games, he would depart West Brom with 20 goals and 26 assists, 17 of which came even though his West Midlands team would ultimately finish in a miserable 19th place in the Premier League.
It was almost a given that the Brazilian midfielder, who at one point in his career was dubbed a “great” talent by his former coach Nate Weiss, would go on to bigger and better things, especially after his side was relegated.
Baggies boss Valerien Ismael approved Pereira’s major transfer to Al-Hilal, and West Brom was more than willing to comply when the opulent Saudi Arabian team paid an estimated £16 million to acquire him.

When considering his value in 2024, West Brom will now realize that it was an even better choice to let go of their former £8 million man. According to Football Transfers, his estimated price currently places him behind Yokuslu, whom the Baggies once acquired for £0.
The transfer value of Matheus Pereira in 2024
The 27-year-old midfielder, who is presently on loan at Cruzeiro and lives in his home country of Brazil, is valued at barely €2.2 million (£1.8 million), a significant drop from his high Al-Hilal transfer fee.
Despite this dip, Pereira isn’t exactly having a hard time either; in just ten games this year back in South America, the Cruzeiro number ten has five assists.
Yokuslu’s value has increased to €3.5m (£2.99m) after just signing on a free transfer last season, which may be more evidence of how important he has become for Corberan’s team than Pereira losing his way.
Not only has the Turkish midfielder’s value increased significantly in the Baggies camp, but Brandon Thomas-Asante has also seen a sharp boost, going from €0.3m (£256k) to €3.4m (£2.90m), which is now more than Pereira’s valuation.
OK, Yokoslu, West, and Rom
Yokuslu will work hard to remain a valuable member of this club as they aim to advance to the Premier League, while former West Brom player Pereira will be wondering when his time in Brazil will come to an end and where his nomadic career will take him.
