#2 Federico Bernardeschi – €24 million
Admit it, you hadn’t heard of Federico Bernardeschi until you got that scout report in one of the more recent FIFA games. The Fiorentina forward is slowly chipping away from the mediocre and establishing himself as one of the hidden gems of the Serie A.
And given he’s only 22 has the kind of career ahead of him that could make Italians drool. Bernardeschi is a right-winger with the confidence that lets him make a fool of defenders in the Italian league. I’m going to stress on that last part: he makes a fool of defenders in the Italian league.
The cheek. And with 11 goals and 3 assists in 21 games, he’s proving to be a real thorn in the side of the big boys challenging for the title. While his side is still in 8th, he has the kind fo ability to ensure they finish the league in a much stronger position.
