1. VIRGIL VAN DIJK – Southampton to Liverpool, 75m

Liverpool eventually sealed a deal for Van Dijk in January 2018, having been accused of tapping home up by Southampton just six months earlier.Van Dijk costs a hefty 75m, making him the most expensive defender in world football, but he has more than proved his worth during his spell on Merseyside to date.The Dutchman has played an integral role in Liverpool’s title bid this season at the heart of their defence.Virgil van Dijk has been a revelation at Anfield10

The World Cup winner had been mooted for a move to Bayern for many months, before the Bundesliga leaders finally finalised a mega money move for the left-back earlier this week.The German giants splashed out the 68m fee required to trigger Lucas’ exit at the end of the season, meaning now they have a defender who could play at the very top for the next decade or more.Lucas Hernandez will officially join Bayern this summer10

4. BENJAMIN MENDY Monaco to Manchester City, 52m

Pep Guardiola broke the record for a defender when he signed Mendy from Monaco in July 2017.An enigmatic and colourful character off the field, the left-back rose to prominence as one of Europe’s most exciting full-backs in the 2016-17 season as Monaco won Ligue 1 – while also reaching the Champions League semi-finals.His arrival spearheaded a spectacular overhaul of City’s backline, which saw them spend close to 165m on three defenders and goalkeeper Ederson, but two serious knee injuries have curtailed what looked to be a promising start to life in England.Benjamin Mendy is a colourful character on and off the field10

Another transfer set to go through at the end of the season, Madrid caught many by surprise when it was announced earlier this month they had paid the release clause of Porto’s Brazil international Militao.The 21-year-old was only brought to Europe from Sao Paulo in 2018, appearing somewhat of a gamble at this stage by Los Blancos.Eder Militao will leave Porto after just a single season, having moved to Europe from Sao Paulo last summer10

9. DAVINSON SANCHEZ Ajax to Tottenham, 36.6m

Spurs waited several weeks to make their first signing of the close-season transfer window in 2017, but they did so in some style, smashing their club record to bring Sanchez to north London.The former Atletico Nacional man reportedly also caught Barcelona’s attention during Ajax’s run to the Europa League final in 2017 and has looked a solid addition to the Premier League since arriving.Davinson Sanchez has been a decent signing for Spurs thus far10
