Jean-Alain Boumsong - Rangers to Newcastle United, £8million

In the summer of 2004 French defender Boumsong moved from Auxerre to Rangers on a free transfer.

Just 6 months later he left Scotland and moved to Newcastle for £8million !

The clumsy French International was put alongside the one and only Titus Bramble and the pair formed an infamous pairing at St James' Park.

Graeme Souness will not be fondly remembered at Newcastle after putting together one of the worst central defensive pairings ever seen in the Premier League.
