8) Gonzalo Higuain (Juventus) – €120.2m
Trending
El Pipita had finished the previous season with 36 goals for Napoli to win the Capocannoniere award. Juventus had seen enough and bought him for a record fee to help them reached the promised land by winning the Champions League. They came close but their bad luck in finals continued.
Still, Higuain represented a coup for The Old Lady as they strengthened their own team while weakening a major rival. The Argentine forward scored 29 goals in Serie A and UCL to end the season as the club’s top goalscorer.
It included nine braces; the highlight being the one against Monaco in the Champions League semi-finals. Higuain has a contract until 2021 which is why he is now rated at over €120m.
