The first £100,000 player - Luis Suarez Miramontes (Luisito)

Then record signing Luisito is still associated with Inter Milan today, working as a scout

Luis Suarez Miramontes became the first ever player to be sold for a six-figure sum when Inter Milan signed him from Barcelona in 1961. Suarez scored 55 goals in 328 appearances for Inter, where he became a regular fixture in the legendary team that won three Serie A titles, two consecutive European Cups and two Intercontinental Cups.

In 1963 Luisito scored a hat-trick against Genoa, which would remain the only hat-trick scored by a Spaniard in the Serie A for 53 years. Suso became the second Spaniard to do so earlier this year when he scored a hat-trick for Genoa. Luisito is currently a scout at Inter Milan.
