Tarik Muharemovic has become an instant fan favourite at Leeds United.

Nobody at Elland Road knew the Bosnian last season, but he's become a Premier League star after five games.

Signed for £34million from Sassuolo to replace Pascal Struijk, he's become an upgrade on the Dutchman.

Daniel Farke rarely throws new signings instantly into his side, but Muharemovic is one of the first names on the teamsheet.

Alongside James Trafford, those two new signings have helped Leeds become the toughest defence in the Premier League.

And his value has skyrocketed as a result.

What is Tarik Muharemovic worth now?

The Bosnian simply ticks all of the boxes.

Left-footed central defenders come at a premium in football now, especially ones at only 23-years-old.

Muharemovic oozes class on the ball, and he's known for putting his body on the line to clear it whenever danger is around.

CIES Football Observatory use their calculations for player values, including inflation and the financial capacities of the most likely buyers.

They state that a fair price for the Leeds defender right now, is £45.4m.

So, after only seven competitive games in white, he is already well on his way to securing sensational profits.

Who could want to sign Tarik Muharemovic?

Just look at who Leeds beat to seal his signature, and you'll realise that some huge names are going to be calling soon.

Juventus were a very clear rival for Muharemovic, given he started there in Italy before moving to Sassuolo, with his switch to Leeds earning them a sell-on.

Arsenal also had Muharemovic on their shortlist, so it just goes to show how well Leeds have done to get their man.

Most importantly, though, he loves this club.

Muharemovic has instantly integrated himself into the fan base, he loves the stadium and the chance given to him to play in the Premier League.

With a contract until 2031, Leeds hold all of the cards.

A price increase of around £11m already is spectacular, but let's be honest, that will be closer to £100m if he continues down this road.
