MailOnline's Fantasy Football is branching out and it's time to test your managerial abilities on the European stage  - but move fast, however, as scoring begins today.

Join now and spend your £75million budget on players from the Premier League, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, Serie A or perhaps the Eredivisie.

There is still time to capitalise upon some of the major signings that have gone down on the continent and, to make the process a little easier for you, Sportsmail has taken a look at the pick of the bunch...


 

Neymar - Paris Saint Germain - £7.9m

It would take a bold competitor to select a European fantasy team this season and not include PSG's new golden boy.

Neymar made scoring goals and creating chances look like child's play in La Liga and, with him now plying his trade in Ligue 1, the mind boggles to think just how many points he could deliver this season.

In monetary terms the Brazilian is one of the most expensive players in the game at £7.9m but, when you're the priciest player in the entirety of football history, that kind of goes with the territory. 

Sportsmail's fantasy rating - 10/10

 

James Rodriguez - Bayern Munich - £7.1m

The man with a point to prove, James moved to the Bundesliga keen to show his worth to Real Madrid and the wider football world.

The golden boy of the 2014 World Cup saw his career stall at the Bernabeu but is highly rated by his previous manager in Spain, and now current boss in Germany, Carlo Ancelotti.

Likely to feature as Bayern's primary playmaker this season and actually build up a run of games, expect James to pitch in with his fair share of goals, while also racking up the points with a series of assists.

Paulinho - Barcelona - £5.1m

Unconvinced and rather puzzled by Barcelona's move for the former Tottenham man? Well, aren't we all.

Nonetheless the Catalan giants have signed the Brazilian midfielder for a reason, and paid Guangzhou Evergrande handsomely to get their man.

It's a strange transfer but Barca realise they have one of the most transitional seasons in their recent history coming up, with 29-year-old Paulinho expected to add experience and versatility to the midfield and heart of the side.

Also, standing at the cheaper ending of the spending scale at £5.1m, the unlikely Nou Camp new boy represents tremendous value. One to consider.

Corentin Tolisso - Bayern Munich - £6.8m

With the summer window reaching fever pitch, Tolisso's move to Bayern went largely unnoticed.

The highly rated Frenchman made the switch from Lyon to the Bavarian giants, with the sole intention of breaking straight into Ancelotti's starting XI.

After a series of impressive performances in pre-season the dynamic midfielder is already staking his claim to become one of the first names on the team sheet, despite the star-studded line up.

Tolisso cost Bayern £35m this summer, but he'll cost you just £6.8m. Bargain, right?

Alvaro Morata - Chelsea - £7.4m

There's a lot of pressure on this young man's shoulders this season. A lot of pressure indeed.

OTHERS TO CONSIDER

Romelu Lukaku - £7.5m

Marco Asensio - £6.6m 

Benjamin Mendy - £6.1m

Ousmane Dembele - £7.2m 

Nemanja Matic - £5.7m

Kasper Dolberg - £7.0m

Kyle Walker - £6.1m

A £75m price tag and the label of being 'Diego Costa's replacement' is something the 24-year-old Spaniard has to live up to, but he already looks to be doing the business.

Morata entered the fray as a late substitute during Chelsea's dismal opening day defeat to Burnley, yet immediately looked to change the vibe of the tie.

His tactical run and subsequent diving header goal was enough to get fans on the edge of their seats and suggest a comeback could be possible.

Once he's fit, expect Morata to fire.

Sportmail's fantasy rating - 8/10 

 

Alexandre Lacazette - Arsenal - £7.3m

Another goal machine who all the eyes will be on, Lacazette will finally get to pit his abilities in the Premier League this season.

Despite being only 26, the Frenchman appears to have been linked with English football for year after year.

Arsenal finally took the plunge and got their man for a record fee, and now Arsene Wenger is hoping he can be the player to emulate Gunners greats before him and fire his new club back among the silverware.
