Top 10 most expensive transfers of the summer
Never before European top clubs have been spending big money like this season. Here are the 10 most expensive purchases of the summer… so far.
10- Vinicius Junior| Real Madrid 45 Mill. €
With Cristiano Ronaldo leaving Real Madrid for Juventus his replacement at Los Merengues could be none other than Flamengo’s teenage star Vinicius Junior. It will not be easy for the Brazilian wonderkid but the talent is there.
The Spanish giants had agreed a transfer since May 2017 but it could only become effective after his 18th birthday. The 45 million euros spent for him make Vinicius the most expensive under 19 ever. Next season he will be joined in Madrid by another Brazilian prodigy like compatriot Rodrygo for nearly the same transfer fee.
The exciting new acquisition of Real is often compared to Neymar both for his style of play and his on pitch behavior. Hopefully he’ll be able to perform under pressure at Santiago Bernabeu.
