There is no photo. English clubs have a financial power that leaves European competitors unable to resist. The Premier League can afford to go far beyond the market price to ensure recruits. ONa was still a little surprised by a particularly high amounts to attract players who do not belong to the cream of footballers. Take the example of Bryan Mbeumo,
the Cameroonian international of 25 years.

Without disrespecting the winger born in France, the 20 goals he scored in 38 Premier League matches in 2024-2025 with Brentford do not completely justify the 75 million euros put on the table by Manchester United. The price paid by Real Madrid at Juventus to offer himself Zinedine Zidane in 2001. Mbeumo, it's not Zizou. And then, There is no guarantee that he will reach the same total goals, or even more, in the jersey of the Red Devils.

The case of Hugo Ekitike also asks questions. Former hope of the Stade de Reims, the French center forward had experienced a failed experience at PSG (2022-January 2024), before fully expressed in Frankfurt (Bundesliga) where it arrived in February 2024 against 35 million euros … anyway. And it is a new jackpot in favor of the German club that has become a specialist in the business of players.

Liverpool draws 220 million euros for two players

A assessment of 26 goals in 64 games, all competitions, in the Eintracht jersey did not make an Ekitike, either, a marking machine, like Kylian Mbappé and his fifty goals per season on average. Ekitike still caused a sensation during this summer period of transfers.

Liverpool agreed to pay 95 million euros for the 23 -year -old striker. And like the Reds, champions of England and obviously from the bank accounts, released 125 million to bring Florian Wirtz from Leverkusen. The German attacking midfielder currently occupies the first place of the most dear transfers of summer.
