From Gary Rowell to Kevin Phillips and Brian Clough, it’s often a hot topic of debate as to how much players would be worth in 2020.
Scroll down and click through the pages to see how much your favourite player could be worth, and let us know if you agree:
1. Niall Quinn
Sunderland paid a fee of £1.3million to sign Quinn in 1996, meaning he would be worth roughly £3million in the modern market. Seems like a smart investment to us! Photo: JPI Media
2. Charlie Hurley
A true Sunderland AFC legend, Hurley commanded a fee of £18,000 when he arrived at Roker Park back in 1957. That would make his value in 2020 approximately £1.7million. Photo: JPI Media
3. Gary Rowell
We all live in a Gary Rowell world! Sunderland reportedly knocked-back a bid in the region of £950,000 from Brighton for their star man back in 1979 - which would put his value today at around £9.2million. Photo: JPI Media
4. Billy Hughes
A real Roker Park hero, Hughes was snapped-up for £300,000 when he left Sunderland for Derby County back in 1997. That would put his value at approximately £3.9million in 2020 prices. Photo: Sunderland Echo
