4A: Neymar da Silva, 71.5 million pounds (Santos to Barcelona)
By 19, Neymar had won the South American Footballer of the year in 2011 and then in 2012. He then won the Fifa Puskas Award for the goal of the year and then Messi, one of the greatest ever said he will be the best. Now what more does one need?? And all this before he even turned 25!! Then in 2013, Barcelona signed him and hid the fact that they paid his parents 40 million to avoid paying taxes. However the fee which was originally reported to be around 50 million pounds, was actually 71.5 million pounds, with a 190 million pound buyout clause!!
