5. Aurélien Tchouaméni (€80m)
A current Real Madrid player kicks off this list - In at number five, it's Aurélien Tchouaméni. The defensive midfielder was signed by Real Madrid from French side Monaco in 2022, on a six-year contract. Clearly a sign of intent from the Bernabeu board that they saw their new signing as a long-term project.
Tchouaméni is slowly developing into a first-team player and so far in the 2023/24 season, he has scored two goals and provided one assist.
