The Premier League is once again the queen and mistress of the summer football market, while the difference is now officially visible. And unattainable.

English clubs have passed the record figure of £2 billion invested, surpassing, so far, only the total spending of the strongest leagues such as Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga and Ligue 1 taken together.

On top of this epochal demonstration of financial strength are two similar transfers, which have rewritten the history of the most expensive British footballers of all times.

Because the incredible thing is that the two most expensive players are English.

And, from our point of view, it is even more incredible that they are not two footballers considered among the best in the world. Sit comfortably. And keep your eyes open, writes “Tuttomercatoweb”, reports “Gazeta Express”.

Chelsea, the undisputed king of summer spending with more than 400 million euros invested, secured the throne by buying Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa for a record 137.3 million euros, to be exact.

Manchester City’s response was not long in coming. The club from Manchester reacted by taking Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest for a full 135 million euros.

And then there is the revolution of Tottenham, after the almost catastrophic fall of last season.

260 million euros spent to transfer Sandro Tonali from Newcastle for 108 million euros, Mateus Fernandes from West Ham for 99 million and Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton for 60 million.

After survival achieved in the last moments, Spurs’ hope is to return to the race for a place in the Champions League. A big step…

Other interesting figures: Liverpool spent a full 63.6 million euros for Jeremy Jacquet from Rennes, while Aston Villa paid 60 million for Johan Manzambi.

Chelsea needed 61 million euros for Maxence Lacroix, while Brighton spent 54 million euros for Luka Vuskovic.

Extremely high figures for footballers who are certainly not household names. covers.

We are not talking about youngsters or talents fighting for the Ballon d’Or. They are transfers that make the difference between other championships and the Premier League even clearer.
