Declan Rice’s £105 million move to Arsenal became the most expensive transfer from one Premier League side to another in the competition’s history until Chelsea broke the record again by finally bringing Moises Caicedo to Stamford Bridge from Brighton. It was a throwback to a few years ago when Liverpool’s world-record fee for a goalkeeper, Alisson, lasted just a few days before Chelsea signed Kepa Arrizabalaga.
It was money well spent, as the former West Ham man helped the Gunners close the gap to Man City in a Premier League title race that went to the final day.
With the 2024 market having opened against the backdrop of two ongoing international tournaments, business has yet to pick up, but that doesn’t mean large amounts of money haven’t been spent.
So far, Rice’s former club has set the benchmark after the Hammers parted ways with £40 million to bring defender Max Kilman from Wolves.
All three of the newly promoted sides — Ipswich, Southampton, and Leicester — have already been active with a view to staving off relegation after their predecessors were all demoted back to England’s second division last term. It was the first time since 1997/98 that all three who had come up had been relegated.
Six months earlier, it was an unusually quiet winter transfer window, as the majority of teams felt no need to dip into the market.
So far during this calendar year, it’s Aston Villa, who are preparing for their Champions League debut, and Brighton who have truly splashed the cash. Villa broke the £100m barrier, with the Seagulls not too far behind.
Below are the 20 Premier League clubs ranked in order of net spend since the start of the 2024 winter transfer window.
