The CIES Football Observatory, a research group that focuses on statistical analysis in football, have valued the Arsenal shot-stopper at €79million (£67.5million).
Ramsdale caused a stir back in 2021 when he signed for the Gunners for around £30million, despite having suffered back-to-back relegations with Sheffield United and Bournemouth.
Eyebrows were initially raised over the signing, but the goalkeeper went on to establish himself as Arsenal’s first-choice and one of the Premier League’s most respected goalkeepers.
The 25-year-old’s performances were rewarded back in May when he was offered a lucrative four-year deal. Upon signing the deal, Ramsdale said: “It’s crazy to think it’s coming up to two years since we did this. I know that you guys weren’t totally overexcited about the signing of myself and I totally get it.
“I didn’t have any right to come here and expect you to rate me from the get-go. This is a huge club with some great keepers along the way. But, fair play, once I got into the team, I got my chance, I feel like you understood me a lot more. I feel your love and I feel like you feel mine as well.”
Second, on the list behind Ramsdale is Paris Saint-Germain’s Gianluigi Donnarumma, who is valued at €75million (£64million), while Liverpool star Alisson Becker completes the top three, with his value an estimated €67million (£57million).
Porto’s Diogo Costa, who is one of several keepers to have been linked to Manchester United this summer, is the world’s fourth most valuable player in his position at €65million (£55.5million).
Meanwhile, Manchester City’s treble-winner Ederson sits in fifth with a value of €57million (£48.7million).
Real Madrid shot-stopper Thibaut Courtois is the sixth most expensive goalkeeper on the list with a value of €52million (£44.4million), while Borussia Dortmund’s Gregor Kobel is seventh, rated at €48million (£41million).
Atletico Madrid’s Jan Oblak is valued at €40m (£34m) while Inter’s Andre Onana, who is also the subject of interest from United, is rated at €37m (£31.6m).
Alex Meret, who helped Napoli to their first Serie A title in 33 years last season, rounds out the top ten with a value of €36million (£30.7million).
