Premier League transfer spending exceeds £1 billion, with 50 days of window to go
14 July 2025The two biggest spenders this summer have been Chelsea and Liverpool, including those deals put in place last year.
Chelsea have spent a combined £211m on Essugo, Delap, Sarr, Joao Pedro, Gittens, Estevao Willian and Kendry Paez – according to Transfermarkt.
Liverpool have shelled out £185m on Wirtz, Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong and Giorgi Mamardashvili.
Tottenham (£122m), Manchester City (£113m) and promoted Sunderland (£100m) are the other clubs in nine figures – including loans made permanent.
Sunderland’s five biggest signings ever have come this summer – headlined by £30m Habib Diarra from Strasbourg and £21m Simon Adingra from Brighton.
Fulham are the only Premier League club yet to sign a player this summer, but four players have left including Carlos Vinicius and Willian.
Crystal Palace have only spent £2m – on Ajax defender Borna Sosa. Goalkeeper Walter Benitez joined on a free from PSV.
Neither of West Ham’s two signings are new players for the first time.
They are Jean-Clair Todibo, whose loan move from Nice was automatically made permanent because they avoided relegation, and teenager Daniel Cummings, who is joining their under-21 squad.
Aston Villa’s two signings are teenagers – Yasin Ozcan and Zepiqueno Redmond.
