Gareth Bale (Tottenham Hotspur–Real Madrid, 2013) £86m

After performing to a blistering level for Tottenham during the 2012-13 season, Bale moved to the Bernabeu for a fee that eclipsed the record-breaking sum Real had spent on Cristiano Ronaldo four years earlier. There was much pressure on the Wales winger and he has endured difficult spells in Spain. But, overall, the 27-year-old has settled there and more than played a part in Real’s Champions League triumphs of 2014 and 2016.

Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United–Real Madrid, 2009) £80m

The winger wanted to move to Real in the summer of 2008 but was persuaded to remain at Old Trafford by Sir Alex Ferguson. A year later, and with another Premier League title to his name, he finally sealed his dream transfer, becoming the world’s most expensive player in the process. Since then the 31-year-old has gone onto score an astonishing 364 goals in 347 matches for the Spanish club, helping them to two Champions League titles and La Liga in 2012. This summer he also guided Portugal to Euro 2016 glory.

Gonzalo Higuain (Napoli-Juventus, 2016) £75.3m

Linked with Arsenal for some time, the Argentina forward left Napoli for another Serie A club this month. He won the c apocannoniere – Serie A’s golden boot – last season after scoring a league record-equalling 36 goals as Maurizio Sarri’s side finished runners-up to Juventus. The switch makes it almost certain the Bianconeri will make it six league titles in a row.
