Football is famous for its eye-wateringly high fees. Here is the World Cup team that would
make even Shiekh Mansour drop his cheque book in fright. This fantasy eleven would have
cost almost €650 million, going on the fees paid for each player by their clubs.
* The transfer of David Luiz from Chelsea to Paris St Germain is all but done, but should it fall
through, Real Madrid’s Pepe is ready to sub in at €30.
