This year’s summer transfer window was record breaking for English soccer clubs. Deadline day moves for David Luiz and Moussa Sissoko pushed spending to £1.165 billion, breaking the existing record by more than £200m. The Premier League spent almost twice as much as second-placed Serie A (£590m) while the Bundesliga rounded off the top three (£460m). Paul Pogba’s move from Juventus to Manchester United was the biggest by far, worth £89m. John Stones and Leroy Sane both moved to Manchester City for fees of £47.5 and £37 million respectively.
