What Was The Most Expensive Football Autograph Ever Sold?

9 Nov 2021

Looking for autographs belonging to a significant other’s favourite celebrity or sports player is a great way to get personalised gifts that are one of a kind and exceptionally meaningful.

However, depending on who they are a fan of, that autograph can set you back a considerable amount of money, with the most expensive autographs ever sold often having a considerable amount of history behind them.

Whilst this is a special case, the most expensive autograph ever sold was George Washington’s signed copy of the United States Constitution, Bill of Rights and First Congress, which sold at auction for $9.8m (£716,000).

Whilst football autographs have never reached that extreme level, there have been some exceptionally expensive autographs that have been sold featuring the signature of some of soccer’s greatest superstars. Here are the most expensive players autographs on average.

    1. Mohamed Salah - £659.99

Mo Salah, the hugely popular Liverpool Forward, managed to beat both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi on this list, which may be in part due to his incredible popularity in his native Egypt, as well as the adoration for Mo on The Kop.

    1. George Best - £895.99

One of the best, most imaginative, and most miraculous players of his era, George Best was arguably one of the first-ever celebrity footballers, so naturally, his autograph was one of the most fiercely hunted for.

    1. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - £899.99

Possibly the biggest surprise on the list, the Arsenal captain is highly popular amongst Gunners fans and a gifted striker, which could explain how expensive his autograph is.

    1. David Beckham - £999.99

It is perhaps no surprise that Brand Beckham himself, Preston North End’s favourite son for the five matches they had of him and the star player of a famed Manchester United Class of 1992, would have an exceptionally expensive autograph.

    1. Sergio Aguero - £1,363.71

Best known for that goal against Queens Park Rangers in 2012 that won Manchester City their first-ever Premier League trophy, Kun Aguero is one of the greatest goalscorers of his generation and presumably the high price of his signature matches his mythical status at the Etihad Stadium.
