Premier League Clubs Lead Transfer Spending

As Transfer Deadline Day approaches, Premier League clubs are poised for a flurry of last-minute deals, with the total summer spending already surpassing £2 billion. Chelsea has been the biggest spender with £219.6m, while Manchester United and others are also heavily involved in the market. Notable potential moves include Jadon Sancho to Chelsea and Ivan Toney to Al Ahli. The English Premier League remains the top spender in Europe, with Italy’s Serie A following at over $1 billion. The Saudi Pro League still has until Monday to complete its deals, having spent significantly less this year compared to last. Clubs are racing against the clock, with deals often going down to the wire, as seen with historic impactful transfers like Claude Makelele to Chelsea in 2003.
