7. Antoine Griezmann: €88.3 Million ($96.46 Million)
The only player to crack into the top ten of the most valuable players in the world who does not feature for a Premier League side, Barcelona or Real Madrid may soon not be able to make such a claim. As Antoine Griezmann continues to star for Atletico Madrid, numerous clubs who have big dreams are keeping watch of the talented player. Arsenal and Chelsea are just two Premier League outfits that have reportedly been interested in obtaining Griezmann’s signature. Arsenal are chasing after a league title. Chelsea, meanwhile, are looking to have a respectable opening half of 2016.
6. Raheem Sterling: €89.8 Million ($98.10 Million)
We have reached the point where we can say that Liverpool do, in fact, miss Raheem Sterling. In fall fairness to Liverpool, though, it is not as if the club was happy to part ways with the young England international. While some may be quick to hit out at Sterling due to the perception that he is more so a mercenary than he is in it for the good of the team, there can be no doubts about his talent on the pitch. Still, it would probably be best for everybody involved if the Manchester City man and his agent just stopped talking about Liverpool to the press. What’s done is done. Move on, everybody.
