Bradley Barcola (PSG) - €70 million

Bradley Barcola just came off back-to-back Champions League wins with Paris Saint-Germain. The Frenchman excels as a winger off the left side of the pitch,  but can contribute equally well on the right and as a centre forward.

The French international is one of Europe's top dribblers with silky and rapid footwork. Barcola can beat any man easily one-on-one. He is extremely physical and direct, loves to make runs in behind and seek goal-scoring opportunities.

However, his finishing still leaves a lot to be desired. Barcola often squanders easy chances, even big one-on-one chances with the keeper. Having said that, he is definitely a dream signing for Bayern Munich with his sheer quality as a chance creator alone. He will make the attacking depth so much better overnight.

The 23-year-old was among Bayern's top candidates for a left-wing spot last summer transfer window, but opted to stay in Paris. Would things change for him now that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is in the best form of his life?
