6. IVAN RAKITIC, Barcelona
Ivan Rakitic will have big boots to fill at Barcelona, where he arrived following the departure of Cesc Fabregas and will play alongside Spanish internationals Andres Iniesta, Xavi Hernandez and Sergio Busquets. The Croatia midfielder helped Sevilla win the Europa League last season as its team captain. Barcelona paid 21 million euros ($28 million) for his passing skills.
