#2 Hulk – Shanghai SIPG
When you look back at the career of Hulk - the 47 time capped Brazilian international - a career consisting of stints in Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Chinese clubs, fans will forever think “what if?”
Hulk first burst onto the scene when Porto took a chance on the 22-year-old Brazilian in 2008. After four successful years in Portugal, he opted for a mega-money-move to Russian Premier League giants Zenit St. Petersburg. During his time in Portugal, Hulk was reportedly close to signing for both Chelsea and Tottenham if reports are to be believed. Nonetheless, the forward disappointed regularly in the Champions League and Europa League against quality opposition.
At Zenit, the 30-year-old was a massive success story, but once again he was playing in a competitive but weaker league. For a once-Brazilian starter, why did he never move to one of European football's major league's?
Now at Shanghai, Hulk is unlikely to return to Europe.
