Top 10 most expensive footballers of all time

#6 Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the greatest ever to grace the game

Cristiano Ronaldo completed his dream Real Madrid move in 2009 for a world record fee of €94 million. Back then, he held the crown as the world's most expensive player.

Of course, that's an astronomic fee, but in hindsight, Ronaldo's achievements at the club make it look more of a bargain than a record move. 3 UEFA Champions League medals, 4 Ballon d'Ors, 2 league titles and many more; CR7 is right amongst the best ever to have graced the game.

Real Madrid have won a total of 15 trophies since his arrival, providing stiff competition to Barcelona and Atletico Madrid for supremacy in Spain.

Also, there's an endless list of records he has broken since his arrival to Real Madrid. The best of them. is perhaps overtaking Raul as the club's all-time top-scorer. As of now, he has 426 goals in 420 games for Los Merengues. Ridiculous!

Ronaldo is widely touted to be the best player the game has ever seen, and looking at his impressive resume tells you why that statement is true.
