Pogba & Martial are the most expensive player and the most expensive teenager respectively, but how long will their records last? 

#5 Most expensive African player

Aubameyang
Aubameyang won the Bundesliga Golden Boot last season and is keen on a transfer

Liverpool have broken this transfer record twice in as many seasons. First when they signed Sadio Mane last summer from Southampton for £34m and then again in this summer, when they signed Mohamed Salah from Roma for £36.9m. And yet, the probability of Salah's record getting broken more than once in the same transfer window is very high.

One of the players who could break the record is 22-year-old Guinean International, Naby Keita. The midfielder who plies his trade for RB Leipzig is a wanted man and by none other than Liverpool!

Liverpool's interest in Keita is well documented and because of Leipzig's reluctance to sell their star player, the Reds will have to break their own and the record for an African player for the second time this summer as Keita is expected to cost Liverpool around £70m!

The other player who could break this transfer record is also from the Bundesliga.

Borussia Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been trying to engineer a move elsewhere for a while now but no move has materialised yet. Chances are that Dortmund will sell the Gabonese man if the right offer comes in and that offer could be over the £80m mark!

In Aubameyang's case, there are no solid rumours about his future but the transfer window is still young and we can never foresee the madness it brings as it grows old.
