Dor Peretz, captain of Maccabi Tel Aviv, leads both his club and the entire league with an estimated value of 5.2 to 6.1 million euros. Peretz has had an impressive start to the season, scoring eight goals in the first five league rounds, including a hat-trick against Hapoel Jerusalem and a brace against Maccabi Haifa. Following him is Douglas Owusu of Hapoel Tel Aviv, valued between 4.9 and 5.7 million euros, who has scored two league goals for his team in victories against Beitar Jerusalem and Hapoel Ramat Gan.
