3) Ruben Dias (Manchester City – €114.4m)
The Portuguese defender has been a fantastic buy for Manchester City. Many were worried that spending £61m on the 24-year-old was a big gamble, considering he had not proven himself in a top European league.
However, Dias was integral to helping City win the Premier League title, and he was handed the Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year award for his performances.
