It will come as a surprise to no-one that Jordan Pickford is England's most expensive goalkeeper.

One of the few shining lights during Sunderland's pitiful relegation from the Premier League, Pickford was quickly snapped up by Everton in the summer of 2017 and despite his tender age, quickly established himself as one of the country's best keepers.

He made his international debut just a few months later and the following year he was selected as England's first choice keeper for the World Cup in Russia, despite his inexperience. He would reward the faith shown in him with a series of impressive displays, including helping England win their first ever penalty shootout against Colombia and being named man of the match in a 2-0 win over Sweden.

However, it hasn't all been plain sailing for Pickford. He has come under intense scrutiny for a number of high-profile errors, most notably inadvertently assisting Liverpool's late winner in a Merseyside derby, and he now finds his status as England's No.1 under threat from the likes of Dean Henderson and Nick Pope.

But as far as this team goes, Pickford is head and shoulders above the competition.
