#3 Aaron Wan-Bissaka (Manchester United) - €55 million
Following the departure of Antonio Valencia, Manchester United were in desperate need of signing a quality right-back. It was around that time that Wan-Bissaka started growing in reputation as one of the best tacklers in the Premier League.

Crystal Palace were well aware of what their right-back was worth and ended up selling him to Manchester United for €55 million. Wan-Bissaka has undoubtedly been a welcome addition to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.
While his defensive abilities have been excellent, he did draw a lot of criticism for his work on the attacking side of things. But over the course of the 2020-21 season, it was clear that the 23-year-old had worked on and improved his dribbling and crossing ability.
He made 54 appearances for Manchester United across all competitions in the 2020-21 season, scoring two goals and providing six assists.
#2 Achraf Hakimi (Paris Saint-Germain) - €60 million
Achraf Hakimi is one of the best right-backs in the world right now and he has showcased his abilities across various leagues over the past few years. He had an impressive loan spell with Borussia Dortmund, where he played for two seasons.
Hakimi was subsequently sold by his then parent club, Real Madrid, to Inter Milan for a sum of €40 million. The Moroccan international played a starring role in Inter Milan's Serie A triumph in the 2020-21 season. He scored seven goals and provided 11 assists in 45 appearances across all competitions for the Nerazzurri this past term.
Due to Inter Milan's financial problems, they have been forced to sell Hakimi and the 23-year-old has now joined Paris Saint-Germain on a deal worth €60 million.
#1 Joao Cancelo (Manchester City) - €65 million
Manchester City man Joao Cancelo is the most expensive right-back in the history of football. Juventus noticed Cancelo during his loan spell with Inter Milan in the 2017-18 season and paid Valencia €40.4 million to sign him.
The Portuguese international enjoyed a good debut season in Turin, scoring a goal and providing five assists in 34 appearances across all competitions. Manchester City came knocking for him in the summer of 2019 and signed him on a deal worth €65 million.
Cancelo has gone from strength to strength at Manchester City and was one of their standout performers in the 2020-21 season. He scored three goals and provided five assists in 43 appearances across all competitions for the Cityzens as they won the Premier League and the Carabao Cup.
Cancelo, however, was unable to feature for Portugal at Euro 2020 after contracting the coronavirus. It certainly affected Fernando Santos' men as Cancelo can be a creative force on the right-wing and provides a lot of thrust from the side. Portugal were eliminated from Euro 2020 in the Round of 16 by Belgium
