10 players whose transfer market value increased the most in the past year

#6 Raheem Sterling – €30m increase to €50m

Raheem Sterling has scored more goals with City than with Liverpool last season in spite of injuries

Disillusioned with how things were going at Liverpool under Brendan Rodgers, Sterling set his sights on a move to Manchester City and got his wish last summer. The Sky Blues were only too happy to shell out £49m to get not only a bright, young player but also one who was homegrown.

The 21-year-old has not had the best of seasons. Injuries have limited him to just 22 starts; which explains the drop in his market value after joining.

But a strong finish to the season and a good performance in Euro 2016 could see him fire City to a legitimate title challenge.
