#4 Philipp Max (FC Augsburg)
ugsburg's left back Philipp Max joined the German outfit in 2015 for just 3.6 million Euros. Despite attracting the attention of some of Europe's finest in the summer of 2017, Max extended his stay in Augsburg. The defender then grabbed headlines over the 2017/18 campaign after he finished the season with 2 goals and 12 assists, putting him behind only Thomas Muller as an effective creator in the Bundesliga.

So far this term, his attacking intent, and industry are making him one of the most attention-grabbing defenders in Germany. With 2.5 key passes a match and 2.2 tackles per 90 minutes, he is effective on both ends of the pitch. Max is reportedly on the Manchester United wish list this season.
Valued at just 6.7 million Euros (the same cost as Joshua Kimmich in 2015), we can't imagine Augsburg letting him go for that kind of cash. The Bundesliga club reportedly wants 42 million Euros for their star full back which is very much affordable for Europe's elite.
