Most expensive football transfers ever
Gareth Bale-100 million euros
Real Madrid always tends to buy the best players in the world seen by there 2009 signing of Ronaldo,Kaka as well earlier purchase's of Beckham,Zidane,Figo etc and this season was no different either as Madrid bought Bale from Tottenham for a record 100 million euros and broke their previous world record signing of Ronaldo for 80 million euros back in 2009.
Christian Ronaldo-80 million euros
When Madrid bought Ronaldo from Man Utd in 2009 for 80 million euros it was the biggest transfer in football history,but it's now broken this season with arrival of Bale from Tottenham.And after 5 years from that transfer,80 million euros is looking like a bargain deal which Real paid as Ronaldo is playing so well for Real scoring in almost every match he plays.
Zinedine Zidane- 64 million euros
Another Real signing which stood as record signing for many years was the transfer of Zinedine Zidane from Juventus to Real Madrid.When Real signed Zidane from Italian giants in 2001 for 64 million euros he was on the peak of his form and he certainly paid his hefty transfer tag with some magnificent performances for Madrid.
Certainly Ibrahimovic is worth 59 million euros Barcelona paid for him in the summer of 2009 to bring him to Spain from Italian Champions back then,Inter Milan.Although,he left for AC Milan after playing just one season with Barce due to fallout with Pep Guardiola,he still managed to score 20+ goals in his one season with Barcelona.
Kaka-58 million euros
One of the contestants for worst signing in the history is of Kaka.Kaka was playing so well and was world's best player when he left for Madrid in 2009 for 58 million euros.But with lack of playing time and continious injuries Kaka certainly didn't get chance to prove his hefty transfer fee and was given free transfer back to AC Milan this season.
