#3 Manuel Neuer
No matter how you look at it, the £19M Bayern Munich paid Schalke for Manuel Neuer in 2011 looks like an absolute bargain to this day. Neuer has gone on to emulate the iconic Oliver Kahn at Bayern and has won arguably everything he can at the club level.
He is considered as one of the mainstays of the German national side and is also a World Cup winner.
The 31-year-old’s brilliant shot-stopping and command in the box have been a boon to his club and country over the years and it will remain the same for at least a few more years considering the fact that goalkeepers get better with age.
Neuer looks nothing close to slowing down or losing shape and considering Bayern are favourites to win everything they play for every year, the player is expected to be at the top of things for quite some time.
