The World Cup has produced some memorable moments for the history books so far. Saudi Arabia beating Argentina and Japan’s triumphs over Germany and Spain are two all-time classics.
In the quarter-finals, a night of penalty shoot-outs saw Argentina and Croatia progress - with Brazil crashing out - to blow the tournament wide open. Several players, too, are becoming household names for their stellar performances in Qatar.
The biggest stage of all allows for players to audition and put themselves in the shop window for a move. With the January transfer window just weeks away, clubs may pounce on the World Cup momentum to bolster their squads.
