6) Kevin Gameiro: Sevilla to Atletico Madrid – £27.2m
Yet another French striker in La Liga, Kevin Gameiro is a journeyman who has been around clubs in France and Spain. Following stints with Lorient and PSG in Ligue 1, Sevilla snapped him up for just €10m.
In his three seasons with the Andalusian club, Gameiro scored 67 goals across all competitions, helping the club win the Europa League in all three seasons.
Atletico Madrid had their eye on Gameiro and soon came in with a €32m bid when they realised they were not going to sign Diego Costa from Chelsea. The 29-year-old made the switch and even made history when he scored the fastest La Liga hat-trick in 22 years.
