According to the well-recognised source, Transfermarkt, the collective worth of the Motherwell squad is valued at a round figure of £7m. In terms of value on the field, it's a significant sum of money for a team of their standing, wouldn't you agree?

They've also got as far as the Semi-Finals in the League Cup, a commendable effort. Lastly, they participated in the Scottish Cup and battled their way to the Fifth Round - not a bad showing by any measure.
