#1 Paulinho (Barcelona)
When Barcelona paid €40 million for Paulinho in the summer of 2017, not even the Barcelona fans were happy with the business. After a hugely unsuccessful spell in the Premier League with Tottenham, Paulinho moved to China during the summer of 2015.

But ever since Tite took over the Brazil reign in 2016, he has revived Paulinho's career. He was superb for Brazil over the last 12 months and had a stunning start to the campaign with Barcelona.
He was quick in silencing the doubters at Barcelona, scoring twice and playing the role of a box-to-box midfielder to perfection. Unlike other Barcelona midfielders, Paulinho is physically strong and is not afraid to go into tackles.
He is excellent aerially and gives a new dimension to Valverde's side. He is dangerous in front of goal with the set pieces and is, altogether, a great addition to the Barcelona squad.
