No, it is not his move to Monaco this summer. Atletico Madrid, in the summer of 2011, bought ‘El Tigre’ from Portuguese side Porto for a whopping £41m. Porto are one of the best when it comes to buying exceptional talent at a low price and then selling the player off after his price has skyrocketed. It’s their second appearance in this list as a beneficiary and they netted a £36m profit for the lethal Colombian forward.
