#4 Luis Suarez: Liverpool - Barcelona £75m (2014)

Barcelona Training & Press Conference

Luis Suarez had firmly established his reputation as one of the world's premier forwards in the world prior to his £75m move to Barcelona but he took his displays to new heights in Catalunya.

Despite starting his debut season in Barcelona with a four-month ban and struggling to blend in upon his return, the Uruguayan ended his first campaign with 25 goals in all competitions which remains his joint-lowest till date in his five seasons at the club.

The very next campaign, the 32-year-old starred with 40 La Liga goals, winning the Spanish Golden Boot, making him the first and till date the only player to win the award apart from Ronaldo and Messi since 2009.

In total, his spell at Barcelona has seen him score 177 goals from 247 appearances to sit 5th on the all time list of Barcelona's scorers while he has also brought 13 major honours.
