Top 10 ost expensive Premier League signings of all time and players transfer fee list
When Manchester City acquired Jack Grealish from Aston Villa in the summer of 2021, everything changed.
However, the Red Devils reacted and made another big purchase last summer, paying £82 million to get Brazilian winger Antony from Ajax.
After spending £89 million on the Shakhtar Donetsk forward, Chelsea has now made Mudryk the joint-third most expensive purchase in Premier League history.
However, Manchester City, who spent £100 million on Grealish and Aston Villa, currently hold the record. The midfielder has supplanted Pogba in the annals of soccer history and surpassed several other record-breaking transfers made by teams like Liverpool, Chelsea, and Arsenal.
Meanwhile, all the records are broken now! Following a hectic day of negotiations with Benfica, Chelsea shattered the British transfer record to recruit Enzo Fernandez for €121 million (£106.8 million). This continued their astounding spending spree.
The agreement, which the London club announced early on Wednesday morning, brings Chelsea’s spending under the ownership of Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital to more than £500 million and is a further indication of their resolve to control the transfer market.
Graham Potter will be hoping Fernández makes his team stronger in central midfield. The negotiations were spearheaded by co-owner Behdad Eghbali, who was persistent throughout Tuesday’s conversations with Benfica.
