In an absolute shocker of a move, Mino Raiola concocted a transfer for Gianluigi Donnarumma to join PSG free of cost at the end of his Milan contract. While many expected the Italian prodigy to eventually leave the San Siro, few would've predicted a transfer to go through without the involvement of any fee.

Even though Milan received absolutely nothing in return for their superstar, Mino Raiola reportedly pocketed a hefty €20m commission. Having negotiated a contract with the French giants which would see his client earn twice of what he was paid in Italy, Raiola completed one of the most lucrative deals of his career.

Valued at €65m, the 22-year-old shot-stopper ranks third on Mino Raiola's roster in terms of market rate. With the majority of goalkeepers hitting their peaks around the 30-year-old mark, Donnarumma has more time than anyone to establish his legacy. The young superstar is yet to make his PSG debut, having signed a five-year contract with the Parisians in July.


#2 Matthijs de Ligt - €75m

Another youngster in Mino Raiola's star-studded clientele, Matthijs de Ligt joined Juventus in a blockbuster €85.5m transfer in the summer of 2019. The then 19-year-old was subject to a lengthy transfer saga, with Barcelona also vying for the Dutchman's signature.

Predictably, it was Raiola who was pulling the strings behind the said conundrum, which ended with Juventus forking out an insane amount of transfer fees.

Following a tough debut campaign, De Ligt has successfully established himself as an integral part of the Bianconeri. Due to his resurgent form, the promising center-back was given an extended run at the back, making 36 appearances last season. De Ligt responded in style, turning in some solid and consistent performances.

At 22, the 31-time capped Dutch international has a long and propitious career ahead of him. Considering Mino Raiola's outspoken nature, interest in De Ligt will always remain extravagant.

Barcelona were yet again linked with a possible transfer for the youngster this summer. If De Ligt is to secure another move in the future, Mino Raiola will make sure it involves a record-breaking transfer fee.


#1 Erling Braut Haaland - €135m

With Kylian Mbappe destined to join Real Madrid somewhere down the line, Erling Haaland is easily the most sought-after player in the world at the time of writing. To add more spice to his prolonged transfer saga, he is represented by none other than Mino Raiola, with the Norwegian being the super agent's most prized asset.

Controversially, the Campania-born agent visited all the top European clubs along with Alf-Inge Haaland this summer to discuss the prolific striker's future. His extended tour started in Barcelona and went on to include destinations like Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City.

With Haaland's release clause cut down to €75m, as reported by Marca, a potential sale could be in the works as early as January of 2022.

Aged just 21, Haaland scored a whopping 41 goals in as many games for Borussia Dortmund last season, laying out a further 12 assists in all competitions. Having proven his consistency at such a tender age, Haaland's inevitable sale in the coming years could pocket Mino Raiola, the biggest commission of his elongated career.
