In my country, soccer is the most famous sport and because almost everybody loves soccer, i thought it would be nice to make a list with every major soccer transfer of 2009. As you can see the list is divided per team: 

Number Name Player Value Old team New team
1. Cristiano Ronaldo € 94.000.000 Manchester United Real Madrid
2. Ricardo Káka € 65.000.000 AC Milan Real Madrid
3. Xabi Alonso € 35.000.000 Liverpool Real Madrid
4. Karim Benzema € 35.000.000 Lyon Real Madrid
5. Alvaro Arbeloa € 4.000.000 Liverpool Real Madrid
6. Raúl Albiol € 15.000.000 Valencia Real Madrid
7. Zlatan Ibrahimovic € 35.000.000 (+ Samuel Eto’o + Aleksandr Hleb on loan) Inter Milan Barcelona
8. Maxwell € 4.500.000 Inter Barcelona
9. Carneiro Keirrison € 14.000.000 Palmeiras Barcelona
10. Diego Milito Unkown fee + Robert Acquafresca Genoa Inter Milan
11. Thiago Motta Unkown fee + Robert Acquafresca Genoa Inter Milan
12. Yuri Zhirkov € 21.000.000 CSKA Moscow Chelsea
13. Glen Johnson € 21.000.000 Portsmouth Liverpool
14. David N’Gog € 2.000.000 PSG Liverpool
15. Michael Owen Free Newcastle Manchester United
16. Gabriel Obertan € 3.000.000 Bordeaux Manchester United
17. Carlos Tevez € 29.000.000 Manchester United Manchester City
18. Gareth Barry € 14.000.000 Aston Villa Manchester City
19. Roque Santa Cruz € 21.000.000 Blackburn Rovers Manchester City
20. Emmanuel Adebayor 29.000.000 Arsenal Manchester City
21. Thomas Vermaelen € 12.000.000 Ajax Arsenal
22. Fabio Cannavaro Free Real Madrid Juventus
23. Diego € 24.500.000 Werder Bremen Juventus
24. Felipe Melo € 25.000.000 Fiorentina Juventus
25. Mario Gomez € 30.000.000 VfB Stuttgart Bayern München
26. Ivica Olic Free Hamburg SV Bayern München
27. Miguel Moya € 6.000.000 Mallorca Valencia
28. Oguchi Onyewu free Standard Liège AC Milan
29. Klaas-Jan Huntelaar € 15.000.000 Real Madrid AC Milan

So this is the list I have so far. As you can see, Real Madrid have bought the biggest names and have spend the most money. The most money spend for one player is € 94.000.000 for Cristiano Ronaldo, but many of you knew that already.

Personally I don’t think that buying the biggest names, will make you the biggest or best team in the world. You will need to have a team that does everything for each other. If that particular team has great players and they stick on each other like gluw, they will most likely be the best team in the world. If you have three or four players that aren’t teamplayers, the manager will have a lot of trouble to have any major trophy with that particular squad. Why do I mention this? Well, you see it every year. Each team buys at least 3 or 4 players. The biggest teams in the world buy the most famous players for a fee that’s not normal anymore. But what happents? They don’t play that good. Everybody thinks you (that particular team) will defeat everybody on the road, but nothing is less true.

I think well known manager should keep in mind: players that are not that famous and especially young players will try to make thier dream come true, therefore they will give at least 110%. The players that already made it, will probably give 80%. See the difference?

I just thought I should mention this :) . Back to the list now. If you have more “big names”-transfers that need to be added to the list, just wright in a comment and I will add it as soon as possible.

Here is a small list of players that probably make a move by the start of the new season:

Vincent Kompany to Barcelona?
Sergio Agüero to Manchester United?
Franck Ribery to Chelsea?
Andrea Pirlo to Chelsea?
Alberto Aquilano to Liverpool?
Sneijder to Inter?

So this is it for now. Keep in mind, if you have more news about transfers, just post it in a comment and let me know. I will add it to the list as soon as possible. If you want to read more soccer news you can read about it here.
