Got a spare £1.4billion lying around? Well you can buy this lot then.

Any ambitious football club owners need to read on, as what follows is the most expensive XI that money could buy you today.

That isn't our opinion though, but the opinion of the good people at the CIES Football Observatory.

That's right, everyone's favourite football observatory have compiled a list of the top 50 most expensive players in the top five leagues (the top-flights in England, Italy, Spain, Germany and France, as if you didn't know), taking into account things like age, contract length and position to give what looks to be a fairly accurate transfer value for each player.

And we've taken that list, looked at for a bit, had a bit of an argument and knocked it into what we feel would be a working XI that would surely have a more than decent chance of winning the Champions League. Especially as five of them have only just gone and won it the other week.

So here it is.

Goalkeeper: Alisson (Liverpool) - £95.7m
