15 Most Expensive Loan Players In History ....READ HERE
Tottenham’s returning Gareth Bale cannot take top spot but he joins Alvaro Morata and Zlatan Ibrahimovic as expensive loanees.
15) Eliaquim Mangala (£31.8m)
The France defender, who still has more caps than Aymeric Laporte (that said, Boris Johnson has as many France caps as Laporte), was the most expensive defender in British football when he joined Manchester City from Porto in 2014. Some reports subsequently put the fee at £42million owing to the structure of his ownership with Porto.
City finally got shot last summer when Valencia gave him another go. In one way, it was a massive loss.
14) Robinho (£32.5m)
“On the last day, Chelsea made a great proposal and I accepted,” said Robinho at his surprise unveiling as a Manchester City player in September 2008. When a reporter replied, querying whether he “meant Manchester”, the Brazilian answered: “Yeah, Manchester, sorry!”
The Brazilian had been, in his defence, en route to Chelsea on one of the most hectic transfer deadline days ever. The Blues had even started selling official replica shirts with Robinho’s name on the back, so confident were they that the deal was close to completion. Not so, as City flexed their new Abu Dhabi-backed financial muscle to swoop.
In terms of statement signings, this was as transparent as it was necessary: an expensive square forced into a circular gap. City needed a name and Robinho duly provided one, but it was never destined to be a long-term love. The forward scored 16 goals in 53 games before returning to first club Santos in a successful bid to force his way into Brazil’s World Cup squad.
Love And It Values
Falling in love is an amazing feeling, and it is one thing that everyone wants to experience at least once in their live time.

THE MOSQUITO NET
THE MOSQUITO NET
One day David asked his wife to go to the market and buy a mosquito net. His wife went to a shop and asked the shopkeeper to show her the best quality net.
The shopkeeper showing her a very good net said, "This is the best quality which you won't be able to find elsewhere. Not even a single mosquito can pass through it."
Mrs. David refused to but the net. When the shopkeeper asked the reason, she said, "If a mosquito can't pass through it, then how will we pass through it." Then she returned home and narrated the whole matter to her husband.
Hearing the whole matter, David laughed at his wife's foolishness.
