Premier League sets new transfer market record

There’s the Premier League and then there’s everyone else. The 20 Premier League sides spent more than €4 billion this summer in the transfer market, setting a new record. Manchester City broke the record for the most spent by a single club in one summer, with more than €500 million spent on new signings. That’s almost as much as the 18 French Ligue 1 clubs combined (€605 million).
