By Daily Sports on September 11, 2019

Premier League champions Manchester City are the first team to have spent more than €1 billion ($1.1 billion) to assemble their squad, a study has shown.

Data from the Swiss-based CIES Football Observatory showed that City have spent €1.014 billion on their current squad. French champions Paris St-Germain were second having spent €913 million and Spain’s Real Madrid were third with €902 million.

Manchester United (€751 million) have the second-most expensive squad in the Premier League, followed by Champions League winners Liverpool (€639 million).

The Premier League average was €345 million, it said

At the other end of the scale, Germany’s Paderborn had the cheapest squad in the study (€4 million), which looked at teams from the English, German, Italian, French and Spanish top flights. (SuperSport)
