Haller is another player from the famous youth of Auxerre, close to Paris. Also making his first appearances there, he swapped France for the Netherlands early in his career, where he became the league top scorer at Utrecht. From the Eredivisie, Frankfurt signed him for 7 million and there he turned up this season.

14 goals and 9 assists in his second year for the Eintracht are amazing numbers. The 190 cm tall attacker is not only amazing in the air, winning 7.4 aerial duels per game, but also with his feet, passing the ball 28 times per 90 minutes. The only issue there is his 63% accuracy, which is very low, but may be due to fact that he often plays the risky ball forward. The Frenchman, who is still only 24 years old, is an outside the box call who could be a respectable successor to Benzema.

How he would fit Madrid: He probably would fit Zidane's tactics the most of all those candidates. Very good at creating chances and a threat in the air, combined with his goal scoring hunger makes him a complete striker. The biggest issue I see here is, that he does not have a big name yet. Real would by no means take a risk of making an international unknown player their star striker, which is a shame considering his talent.

Costs: £40 million
