#2 Kevin De Bruyne
Purchased from Wolfsburg in 2015 for £55 million euros, numerous eyebrows were raised when Manchester City chose to sprinkle out on a Premier League reject. However, those questions were addressed, by none other than De Bruyne himself, who has now become into one of the best attacking midfielders on the planet.
Truth be told, he has already been tipped by numerous experts, to win the Ballon d’Or (Football’s prestigious award), sooner rather than later.
Last year, Kevin De Bruyne had an instrumental impact in assisting Manchester City to the Premier league title with a record goals and points to his name.
The Manchester City’s midfielder scored a total of 8 goals, with 16 assists while making a record 104 chances in the Premier League (2017-18). The Belgian would even have won last year’s Premier League player of the year award, had it not for Mohamed Salah who snuffed the award under the midfielder’s nose.

Aside from his Premier league’s performances, De Bruyne also played a vital part in helping Belgium complete third at the World Cup 2018.
Excellent with either foot, De Bruyne can whip in balls with pinpoint precision. This also makes him the most dangerous player in the current Manchester City’s lineup. And, keeping in view his immense achievements for club and country, De Bruyne certainly justifies his current price tag of 150 million euros.
