#2 Right Back: Danilo

Ad

If there is one club that regularly pays vast sums of money for defenders, it is Real Madrid. From Sergio Ramos and Pepe to more recently the likes of Fabio Coentrao, Real have shown that they are not afraid to bring out the cheque book to fill the gaps in defence. So it should come as little surprise that the most expensive full-back of this transfer window was Danilo, who was signed from Porto for £22m.

The 24-year-old Brazilian, who has already won consecutive league titles with Porto and the Copa Libertadores with Santos, secured his move to the Bernabeu after four seasons in Portugal. While some might question the need for spending so much for a full-back, money is never a problem when Real are concerned.
