3. Wayne Rooney (Everton to Manchester United £30m)
Ferguson made a few Anderson-standard signings in his 27 years at United, but his overall record in the transfer market was superb and few signings have proven to be better than Rooney.
At only 18, the Everton striker cost United £30m, but he has since become the club’s influential captain and is on course to surpass Sir Bobby Charlton as its all-time top scorer. Money well spent.
