Top 5 best value-for-money deals this January

Mohamed Salah

When has £11million been a bargain? Well, Chelsea’s acquisition of Mohamed Salah could be regarded as a cheap deal in the forthcoming years if the ex-Basle midfielder adapts to London life, and José Mourinho’s strict demands.

The Egypt international has the attributes to be a top player – electrifying pace, direct running and trickery – and given the improved training facilities on offer at Chelsea, when compared to his former clubs, Salah should continue to flourish for years to come.

Cheaper than Nemanja Mati?. Cheaper than Kurt Zouma. And cheaper than Eden Hazard, Oscar, Willian and André Schürrle. Yet Salah could prove to be just as valuable.
