Every transfer move that Fernando Torres has been groundbreaking. His move from Atletico Madrid to Liverpool for £20 million was the highest transfer fee in the Reds' history and his move to Chelsea four years later cost Roman Ibramovich a cool £50 million. The record move, saw Torres' shirt sales rocket but unfortunately despite winning the Champions league during his time at Stamford Bridge his 20 goals in 110 games was a shadow of his previous form on Merseyside and he was eventually sold back to Atletico Madrid via a brief loan spell at AC Milan.
