The title explains it all. What was the highest price paid for an Asian player?

Was it Nakata's $26M from Roma to Parma?

don't think anyone else comes close to that.

but the roma deal was not all cash. dimitry aletnichev moved the opposite way in a swap-deal plus cash.

how come transfer fees are damn expensive while the average or a bit better than average player's salaries are way lower than those of yankees' bench warmers?
