#4: Ivan Rakitic (18 million Euros)
Sevilla lost much more than a captain when the man who led them to a triumph in the 2014 UEFA Europa League. A stand-out man in the midfield, Rakitic provided the necessary work-rate to Barcelona's ageing midfield at the moment of his arrival. There are always a few players in every team who silently do their work week-in and week-out without garnering much attention from the media and the fans. Rakitic is clearly one of the hard-working members of the squad.
A box-to-box midfielder, Rakitic is one of the best passers of the ball in this Barcelona side which already features loads of midfield talent. Only he does what he does best. Rakitic's job in the Barcelona system isn't the most attractive offering but the Croat offers that vital link between the defence and the attack that helps break down defences. A tireless midfielder, Ivan Rakitic is one of the most active player in the team and has featured in more matches than some of the other leaders of the team.
