# 1 – Zlatan Ibrahimovic
From Inter Milan to Barcelona for $65 Million dollars + Samuel Eto’o (valued at $ 26 Million)
Pep Guardiola didn’t do much wrong during his time at Barcelona but this move was a colossal mistake. Samuel Eto’o had made 200 appearances and had 130 goals to his name at Barcelona. He seamlessly fitted into the system and clubs all over the world were looking for his signature. But, Guardiola went on to exchange him plus paid $ 65 million dollars for a slow, overrated Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Inter Milan must have celebrated the night after this deal went through.
With only 22 goals in 46 appearances at Barcelona, Ibrahimovic proved to be a failure while Eto’o scored 33 goals in his first season at Inter, winning the Champions League!
In the end, Ibrahomivic cost Barcelona a staggering $4.1 million per goal.
