The top 20 biggest spending clubs have been revealed.
The top 20 biggest spending clubs in world football over the last decade have been revealed.
Over the years, Premier League clubs have often spent big money to lure some of the world’s best players to England.
However, in recent transfer windows, the rise of the Saudi Professional League has thrown a spanner in the works.
Big names such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante, Roberto Firmino, Neymar and Riyad Mahrez have all been tempted by the big-money contracts presented to them by Saudi Arabian clubs.
A recent report by CIES, the Football Observatory, has revealed the biggest spending clubs over the last decade.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Premier League side Chelsea ranked top of the pile having spent €2.78 billion since 2015.
This summer, the Blues spent big again as they brought in the likes of Pedro Neto, Joao Felix, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Filip Jorgensen, Omari Kellyman, Mike Penders, Aaron Anselmino, Renato Veiga, Caleb Wiley, Marc Guiu, Jadon Sancho and Tosin Adarabioyo.
Quite a way behind Chelsea are reigning English champions Manchester City, who have a total spending of €1.96 billion.
Another Premier League side, in the shape of Manchester United, rounded off the top three with a spending of €1.95 billion.
Away from the English top flight, the likes of Paris Saint Germain, Juventus, Barcelona, Real Madrid and AS Monaco all made the list.
