True that! I believe that at the time Cruijff transferred as a player Barca hasn't won in years. You could argue he's the reason Barca is as it is today thanks to him; he changed the entire club
+mackayoko and Ronaldinho to Barça as well. Took us out of the worst crisis in our history, returned the momentum to the change of power in la Liga and Europe and, most of all, returned happiness to the Camp Nou.
doesn't matter, in terms of transfers, he is the first 1million player. Bosman never won anything but the effect he had on football is more than pele and maradona ever had
Maradona from Barcelona to Napoli was the first big shocking transfer in the world, it should be definitely in the list because it all started from there.
+Nick Gucci Not really. FIFA and the UEFA have such a hard-on for the US that they will forever try to make football popular across the pond. The market is huge, and the potential profits are even bigger.
I think Cristiano Ronaldo from Sporting to United deserves to be on this list. Ronaldo is one of the most influential players ever, when he came to England the new era of football began. Look at the legacy he is leaving behind, from games, clothes, merchandise etc. I could go on
+Ross_AFC Bale is a superstar. There is no other club for him more suitable. You just can't see past the booing and whatever you hear in the media. There is a lot more to the Bernabeu than what you see. But its true that if you are not a fan..its very easy to hate us. I get that. You have to earn your place every single match. Never mind if you hate us though. I can't make you understand 100+ yrs of culture in YT comment section anyway.
+Enzowit It's pretty easy, Barca is a rich city that wants to detach of Spain so they don't have to take care about the rest of the poor country, whilst Real cares about the country :)
These football transfers really changed the whole world!!! I can't imagine how different the world would be if Luis Veigo didn't move from Barcelona to Real Madrid. These transfers had more of an impact on the world than both world wars combined.
David Beckham deserved to be higher on the list. The Galaxy rebranded itself upon his arrival, the league rewrote their signing rules, and the world began asking "who are these MLS teams"?
Ozil to Arsenal ? Wenger finally taking out money to spend in the transfer window ? Tevez to City ? Joining City Neighbours to let united know that City are coming to get them ?
Alan shearer world record (at the time) 15 million pound transfer fee to Newcastle really the first time when clubs started playing ridiculous amounts of money for players and it was a good transfer too saying as he sometimes sing handedly carried Newcastle at times
(1) Alfredo di Stefano - Millonarios to Real Madrid - the making of Real Madrid, therefore the Euopean Cup and thus modern football per se (2) Franz Beckenbauer - Bayern Munich to New York Cosmos (or Pele to NYC) incomprehensible at the time but about the globalisation of football and a pointer to the future (3) Johann Cruyff - Ajax to Barcelona - spreading the Dutch gospel; he later coached there too to reinforce the point (4) Trevor Francis - Birmingham City to Notts Forest - first million pound player and the commencement of really silly fees (5) Ferenc Puskas - Ferencvaros to Real Madrid - see (1) (6) Denis Law - Torino to Man Utd - British version of (1) (7) Kenny Dalglish - Glasgow Celtic to Liverpool - caused a dozen years of domestic and European domination (8) Jurgen Klinsmann - Stuttgart (-? - Cologne??) to Tottenham Hotspur - waking up the boring Brits to different ways of doing things
Gerrard and Lampard have been abysmal in MLS, if you're gonna highlight big names who came over last season give Drogba a mention, carried Montreal to the playoffs last season
"Third party ownerships is banned worldwide now" No it isn't? It just isn't! Look at FC Twente, they are nearly bankrupt these days because of third party ownerships. Ownerships from a few years back, not 2006/07
no ronaldo, no di stafano, no Cruyff. di stafano paved the way for this European power house that is real Madrid and cruyff managed to transform a struggling team into world beaters before managing the club to massive success before inspiring a style of football that dominated Europe for almost ten years.
Ronaldo to United might have deserved a spot on there. And I don't think Bale moving to Madrid was world changing. Apart from breaking the transfer record, what else changed?
Dan Pilkington It was a team effort vardy was one cog in a well oiled machine you could claim that danny simpson was world changing they both played big parts
+Jovanny Leon When there is a trade of a player you usually have two parties. Namely the selling and the buying club. For instance when Mesut Özil went from Real Madrid to Arsenal, Real Madrid was the 1st party, and Arsenal the 2nd. That is a regular transfer. Things get more complicated when a third party gets involved. Usually they own a part (or the entirety) of a players contract. That means if an investor owns 60% of the players contract, such was the case with Mascherano and Tevez, then the club that buys the player (the 2nd party) only has to pay 40% of the transfer fee - as the rest is owned by someone other than the 1st party. Hope that cleared it up. (I assume you meant 3rd party ownership. If a player is owned by 3 parties then there are just two investors and the club)
+James Muller No. The players were not fully owned by Corinthians. Corinthians pretended the players were theirs, thus when West Ham bought the two players, they only payed the amount of money that Corinthians wanted, but another club/agency owned them as well and they didn't get any money. So that's why they were fined £5m, to make up the rest of the money.
I'm not even bitter about Cantona... I'm not... I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING
Leeds United to win the champions league
+Ross_AFC i wish
Gølden G come back to the premier league :(
Haha true asf
Dirty Leeds won't get back there any Time soon
Then £46 million got you Zidane.
Now it can't get you John Stones..
MikaTV 😂😂😂
Cruijff to Barca anyone? He brought Dutch Total Football to Catalonia, which influences the club to this date
+mackayoko Great shout.
+mackayoko His transfer arguably influences world football to this date too.
Surprising omission!
True that! I believe that at the time Cruijff transferred as a player Barca hasn't won in years. You could argue he's the reason Barca is as it is today thanks to him; he changed the entire club
+mackayoko and Ronaldinho to Barça as well. Took us out of the worst crisis in our history, returned the momentum to the change of power in la Liga and Europe and, most of all, returned happiness to the Camp Nou.
Help when you can spell Cruyff
Last time i was this early portsmouth were in the prem
Fuck you
Ok
+Kyle Galashan hahahahaha youre a portsmouth fan
+Maroan Hamawandi yeah me too but i live in denmark, got portsmouth fan because i played with them in fifa 16 career mode ;)
+Thomas ‘Macy’ Lauritsen your badge says you're a liverpool fan..
Trevor Francis? He was the first £1 million player
doesn't matter, in terms of transfers, he is the first 1million player. Bosman never won anything but the effect he had on football is more than pele and maradona ever had
Where the fuck is Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon?
+Jake Waldron How did that transfer change the world?
+angelicinterment it caused two of the best players of all time to play against each other on a regular basis in one of the biggest club rivalries.
beboguerra It didn't though, his move to Real Madrid did and I wouldn't call that changing the world anyway.
+beboguerra Barcelona and Manchester United play each other on a regular basis? O K
+beboguerra no it never if Manchester United never bought him Real Madrid would have
Copafam! Those are our Top 10 Transfers that changed the world. Have we missed any? Let us know.
Yessssss! Where's Suarez to Liverpool
...Van persie to man united.....
ronaldo to real Madrid
Maradona to Napoli
cristiano ronaldo from man united to real Madrid or RVP from Arsenal to Man united or Ronaldo from Barchelona to Inter
Ronaldo??cristiano???ronaldinho???
They weren't shocking transfers, they are just great players
+Mert Girgin figo was not great player (expected), zidane was not great player (expected).. should i go on?
+MegaDavidRiley u dumb?
+cihan eroglu Yeah i am agree that Ronaldo was a great player but this is the list of people who really transfers
Yeah
I agree with Bossman being #1. And only the Bossman ruling actually 'changed the world'.
The Bosman case came up on my European Union Law Exam today, Thank you Copa90
feel like cruyf (ajax to barca) should be here, talk about changing football
great video!
Thank you so much for including Jean - Marc Bosman! Every player owes him, everyone.
Maradona from Barcelona to Napoli was the first big shocking transfer in the world, it should be definitely in the list because it all started from there.
Wow! Beckham might have very well saved MLS from becoming too irrelevant to matter.
+Nick Gucci Not really. FIFA and the UEFA have such a hard-on for the US that they will forever try to make football popular across the pond. The market is huge, and the potential profits are even bigger.
+GardEngebretsen Sarcasm my dear man.
Yeah the MLS has its dick sucked all the time. For example ok it's only an app but on tops kicks you have the MLS over la liga like wtf
Suarez Ajax to Liverpool and Ronaldo Man U to Real Madrid??
+Action Planet suarez? why?
+AFCA 1900 because he's a world player
Δδηη he's decent... and if there would be a transfer why ajax to liverpool and not liverpool to barca?
Thomas Bolstad yeah.. so? He's like the number 4 football at the moment. Comes nowhere close to top 10 of all time
Thomas Bolstad neymar. And still why his transfer from ajax to liverpool and not liverpool to barca..
Awesome top ten Guys
Pirlo is also in the MLS
No shit Sherlock
Ronaldinho missing i could understand. a bit strange to me but i can understand but RONALDO? Cristiano Ronaldo missing? dude that's crazy
West ham signing tevez and mascherano, didn't know that at all. Living and learning
Nice vid
Bosnan ruling both hurt and helped the beautiful game. Well, it changed the game forever.
I think Cristiano Ronaldo from Sporting to United deserves to be on this list. Ronaldo is one of the most influential players ever, when he came to England the new era of football began. Look at the legacy he is leaving behind, from games, clothes, merchandise etc. I could go on
bale deserves better than scummy Madrid fans
Shut up
+Jefferson Fernandez you shut up
I'm a Madrid fan but I don't hate Bale at all
+Ross_AFC Bale is a superstar. There is no other club for him more suitable. You just can't see past the booing and whatever you hear in the media. There is a lot more to the Bernabeu than what you see. But its true that if you are not a fan..its very easy to hate us. I get that.
You have to earn your place every single match.
Never mind if you hate us though. I can't make you understand 100+ yrs of culture in YT comment section anyway.
+Enzowit It's pretty easy, Barca is a rich city that wants to detach of Spain so they don't have to take care about the rest of the poor country, whilst Real cares about the country :)
Last time I was this early, Kramarić was playing and scoring goals like a machine.
so never ?
+Conor McGregor He was that good about 2 years ago when he hasnt gone to Leicester...
Well done Copa90, a list not entirely populated by English prem league transfers. Good one!
These football transfers really changed the whole world!!! I can't imagine how different the world would be if Luis Veigo didn't move from Barcelona to Real Madrid. These transfers had more of an impact on the world than both world wars combined.
All sarcasm if you hadn't picked up on that already
You missed Ronaldinho's transfer from PSG to Barca what a legendary time he had in Spain ..
Pele to New York Cosmos!!! That surely mustve made the first big bang of football in North America!!!
David Beckham deserved to be higher on the list. The Galaxy rebranded itself upon his arrival, the league rewrote their signing rules, and the world began asking "who are these MLS teams"?
How Mo Johnson isn't on this list is outrageous
Definitely agree with #1, Beckham should be #2 and I'm surprised Defour didn't make the list.
Very few people outside of England know about Sol to Arsenal.
love it
tevez changed sheff utd's world
George Best to Fulham
He was the first EVER football player to become world famous
Ronaldo to madrid forever changed madrid, cant believe you didn't include him
Ozil to Arsenal ? Wenger finally taking out money to spend in the transfer window ?
Tevez to City ? Joining City Neighbours to let united know that City are coming to get them ?
No Cr7 or Johan Cruyff? tf
van Basten to Milan?
Luis figo made a Good choice
Cantona should be a lot higher, his transfer had a massive affect on English football.
how the entire fuck is ronaldo not on this list
Alan shearer world record (at the time) 15 million pound transfer fee to Newcastle really the first time when clubs started playing ridiculous amounts of money for players and it was a good transfer too saying as he sometimes sing handedly carried Newcastle at times
Anyone else notice that the picture of the Ballon D'or when talking about Zizou, it had Cristiano Ronaldo on it lol
Ronaldo's transfer to Real Madrid didn't really change football. It was just a case of a world class player moving from one big club to another.
Really what about the world's best Player Cristiano Ronaldo
lol glory hunter
Ricky Villa and Ozy Ardinez to Spurs? changed foreign transfers forever
3:09 the man looks like chicharito
Ronaldo over Bale...Bale wouldn't be at Madrid if it weren't for Ronaldo
How do you work that out
+BucSappy Bale helped Madrid achieve more success in his very first season at Madrid than Ronaldo did his entire career....Just sayin..
+BucSappy Why wouldn't Bale be at Madrid if it wasn't for Ronaldo? Ronaldo had nothing to do with getting Bale to Madrid.
Roy Keane to Man United British transfer record at the time
Early Chelsea were actually high!
i would love Tevez in Corinthians right now
Surely the first ever football transfer changed the world.
What about Trevor Francis the first 1 million pound player? Surely that's gotta be on here!
2:50 2:51 to psg
You never get these top 10 videos remotely accurate.
how do u go from Barcelona to real Madrid
Do one that would have changed the world
at 0:42 the ballon d'or that Zizou won, was cristiano ronaldo's
wow! ZIDANE ACTUALLY HAD HAIR
3rd party is NOT banned worldwide... it happens in South America and Portugal (not sure about Spain) so where is the ban there then?
Zidane would be worth double that in todays era.
Mo Johnnston! Probably Theiry Henry! for only 10 million was genuis by Arsene Wenger, Shearer to Newcastle at time was highest 15 million.
(1) Alfredo di Stefano - Millonarios to Real Madrid - the making of Real Madrid, therefore the Euopean Cup and thus modern football per se
(2) Franz Beckenbauer - Bayern Munich to New York Cosmos (or Pele to NYC) incomprehensible at the time but about the globalisation of football and a pointer to the future
(3) Johann Cruyff - Ajax to Barcelona - spreading the Dutch gospel; he later coached there too to reinforce the point
(4) Trevor Francis - Birmingham City to Notts Forest - first million pound player and the commencement of really silly fees
(5) Ferenc Puskas - Ferencvaros to Real Madrid - see (1)
(6) Denis Law - Torino to Man Utd - British version of (1)
(7) Kenny Dalglish - Glasgow Celtic to Liverpool - caused a dozen years of domestic and European domination
(8) Jurgen Klinsmann - Stuttgart (-? - Cologne??) to Tottenham Hotspur - waking up the boring Brits to different ways of doing things
i think luis suarez from lfc to barce
Eto and big moneys to Inter Milan for Ibra. Thanks Barca, we won the Champions!
Gerrard and Lampard have been abysmal in MLS, if you're gonna highlight big names who came over last season give Drogba a mention, carried Montreal to the playoffs last season
Buffon from Parma to Juventus. And Ronaldo from Barca to Inter
Ronaldo to MUFC? The making of one of the best of all time and Bale is above him because he cost a bit more.
I think Ronaldo from United to Real Madrid should be in this
MLS and dizzy heights don't mix haha
Surprised cristiano Ronaldo wasn't in this from Manchester United to Real Madrid
Man City fans think that a minute's silence is meant to last for 90.
Mo Johnston Celtic to rangers?
No Luis Suarez to Barca. They're unstoppable
"Third party ownerships is banned worldwide now"
No it isn't? It just isn't! Look at FC Twente, they are nearly bankrupt these days because of third party ownerships. Ownerships from a few years back, not 2006/07
Where Shearer to Newcastle?
Well Now Neymar is The most expensive player in The world.
no ronaldo, no di stafano, no Cruyff. di stafano paved the way for this European power house that is real Madrid and cruyff managed to transform a struggling team into world beaters before managing the club to massive success before inspiring a style of football that dominated Europe for almost ten years.
Wait...one question : Is Messi Transferring from his old club to Barcelona or just moved away?
Bendtner to Wolfsburg 💚
How did Ronaldo, the most expensive transfer in history (at the time,) not make it into this list?
what about gazza to lazio?
You forgot the 11th one My MOM form 1 Cent!
Ronaldo to United might have deserved a spot on there.
And I don't think Bale moving to Madrid was world changing. Apart from breaking the transfer record, what else changed?
shearer to newcastle???
Im a messi fan though u shd have added ronaldo's move from or to man utd
Jamie Vardy to Leicester?
He's had one good season hardly world changing
+Lucas benjamin Agreed.
+Lucas benjamin LEICSETER WON THE LEAGUE
Dan Pilkington It was a team effort vardy was one cog in a well oiled machine you could claim that danny simpson was world changing they both played big parts
Ayye, this is weird, never got here so early
Not to sound stupid but what exactly is owned by 3 parties??
Tevez and Mascherno were owned by a third party something along the lines of a talent agency which means they weren't fully owned by West Ham.
Another club
Or another club gets some money out of the player
+Jovanny Leon When there is a trade of a player you usually have two parties. Namely the selling and the buying club. For instance when Mesut Özil went from Real Madrid to Arsenal, Real Madrid was the 1st party, and Arsenal the 2nd. That is a regular transfer.
