The top 5 Premier League January transfers of all-time

Luis Suarez – Ajax to Liverpool (2011)

Eyebrows were raised when Liverpool signed Luis Suarez for £22.8m in the winter of 2011. The Uruguayan had courted controversy two months previous for biting PSV Eindhoven star Otman Bakkal and received a seven-match ban.

After a slow start in his first couple of seasons at Anfield, Suarez began to fire on all cylinders during the 2012-13 season. He bagged 30 goals in all competitions as Liverpool finished seventh.

The following campaign would see the Reds challenge for the title, with Suarez forming a deadly partnership with Daniel Sturridge. He finished the season with 31 goals from 33 matches, making him only the seventh-ever player to break the 30-goal barrier in a single Premier League season.

Nemanja Matic – Benfica to Chelsea (2014)

Nemanja Matic returned to Chelsea after three years away from Stamford Bridge in 2014. His acquisition proved the key signing as the Blues geared up for a title challenge the following season.

Sure enough, the £21m man was one of the main cogs in the Chelsea machine as Jose Mourinho’s side breezed towards their first top-flight title since 2010.

Gabriel Jesus – Palmeiras to Man City (2017)

Despite only joining Manchester City a year ago, Gabriel Jesus has already made a significant impact at the Etihad Stadium. The 20-year-old has adapted to life in the Premier League in spectacular fashion and has bagged 15 goals in just 28 league games for the Sky Blues.

If the Brazilian can stay injury-free, he has the potential to lead the line for City over the next decade and beyond.
