Statistics prove that the English club Chelsea had revealed its contractual fangs during the last winter transfer market.
In general, the English Premier League clubs broke the record for assignments in the winter Mercato, amounting to 815 million pounds sterling.
Chelsea accounted for a large proportion of this amount, as it had spent 323 million pounds sterling, taking the lead in English spenders last January.
Statistics indicate that the spending of the London club alone exceeded the spending of all teams in the Spanish, Italian, German and French leagues.
The deal to sign Enzo Fernandez from Benfica, Portugal, accounted for the lion’s share of Chelsea’s losses, as he had incurred 107 million pounds for its completion.
After the children of Stamford Bridge, Southampton comes second in the spending list, having spent 60 million pounds sterling, followed by Arsenal, who sacrificed 59 million.
