FIFA World Cup 2022 Fans

Lionel Messi - Argentina - $10.5m

None of Argentina’s forwards are hitting the high notes in Qatar as of yet although Messi has banked a couple of goals already and Australia will be vulnerable in the last-16.

Harry Kane - England - $11m

With Bukayo Saka quietening down after a storming start, Marcus Rashford has now emerged as England’s chief attacking threat. A better option is still Kane, who has bagged three assists, is always guaranteed to play, and is very much due a goal.

Alex Sandro - Brazil - $5m

Brazil look to have a good run to the final four with South Korea then Croatia or Japan and did not concede in their opening pair of games with the left-back in the team. Sandro was out for matchday 3 but should be fit for the knockouts.

Jordi Alba - Spain - $6m

Alba racked up three assists and a clean sheet in the group stage, and La Roja will be favourites to dominate Morocco in this week’s game.

Christian Pulisic - USA - $7.5m

The US are on a bit of a roll after a quiet start and Pulisic is the talisman, with a goal and assist so far, ahead of facing a subpar Netherlands side.
