Cillessen joins Valencia's most expensive XI LaLiga Second highest transfer in club's history

Jasper Cillessen's 35 million euro move to Valencia puts him into the club's most expensive team of all time.

The Dutchman's arrival from Barcelona is actually Los Che's second highest transfer in their history behind Goncalo Guedes.

We've put together a team of Valencia's most expensive signings by position.

Goalkeeper: Jasper Cillessen (35 million euros)

The deal saw Cillessen and Neto swap clubs as part of separate deals in order to balance the books of both Barcelona and Valencia. Cillessen arrives at the Estadio Mestalla after three years in Marc-Andre ter Stegen's shadow.

Left-back: Aly Cissokho (7 million euros)

Valencia's academy has produced several excellent left-backs (Jordi Alba, Juan Bernat and Jose Gaya) so they don't often need to buy in this position. Cissokho arrived from Lyon in 2012 for seven million euros before being sold to Liverpool a year later for six million euros.

Central defence: Ezequiel Garay (24 million euros) and Aymen Abdennour (21.3 million euros)

Garay is the most expensive central defender in Valencia's history and currently forms part of Marcelino's backline at Mestalla. Abdennour was a less successful transfer and is currently for sale after a few failed loans.

Right-back: Joao Cancelo (15 million euros)

Lots of people raised their eyebrows when Peter Lim spent 15 million euros on a youngster who'd barely featured for Benfica. That youngster completed a 42 million euro move to Juventus last summer.

Central midfield: Enzo Perez and Geoffrey Kondogbia (both 25 million euros)

Both players cost the same amount but have seen their fortunes differ since arriving at Valencia. Perez didn't settle into the team and was sold to River Plate for just three million dollars, while Kondogbia has become one of the key men at the club in recent years.

Right wing: Joaquin (25 million euros)

Juan Soler revolutionised Valencia when he paid 25 million euros for Joaquin from Real Betis in 2006. After five years and a Copa del Rey triumph, the Spaniard left for Malaga for four million euros.

Left wing: Goncalo Guedes (40 million euros)

The most expensive player in Valencia's history joined the club from PSG in 2018 after an impressive loan spell the season before.

Strikers: Negredo and Rodrigo (both 30 million euros)

Rodrigo has become an integral part of Valencia's recent successes while Negredo was one of the biggest flops in the club's history. He arrived from Manchester City for 30 million euros before Besiktas paid just three million euros for him three years later.
