Man Utd are only club with £1BILLION net spend in 10 years as top 20 revealed

MANCHESTER UNITED are the ONLY club in the global game to have spent more than £1BILLION net over the past decade.

Since the appointment of Louis van Gaal in the summer of 2014, United’s net outlay, taking sales into account, stands at a staggering £1.2bn, with £524million of that having been splashed out SINCE the Covid pandemic of 2020.

The arrivals of Rasmus Hojlund, Mason Mount and Andre Onana this summer for a total of £164m has only extended United’s stratospheric spending policy over the past decade.

But Chelsea’s astonishing three transfer windows since the arrival of Todd Boehly, with a net spend of £558m in 2023 ALONE and £880m over the period, means the Blues are now second in the global list.

According to statisticians at the Swiss-based International Centre for Sports Studies (CIES), the remarkable excesses of the Prem over the past 10 seasons have been laid bare.
