2. Juan Mata (Chelsea to Manchester United)- £37.1 million
“Dramatic” is the word that comes to mind when we talk about Juan Mata and his arrival at Manchester United. While David Moyes was struggling to make many big deals a success, Chelsea accepted United’s big money bid for the former Real Madrid academy graduate. And if the clubs involved in the transfer was not enough to make headlines, his arrival certainly did. Who could forget that famous ‘chopper arrival’ in Carrington in stylish suits. That moment announced the arrival of Juan Mata. And the Spaniard still is one of the most important players in the United squad. This, many believe was the highlight of David Moyes’s stint as Manchester United boss.
