Manchester City have now spent more money than any other side in Europe’s Big Five leagues to create their star-studded squad
Pep Guardiola's team cost an incredible £775million to create, overtaking big-spending Paris Saint-Germain into the No1 spot
MANCHESTER CITY weren't afraid to splash the cash this summer in order to get back to the top of English football.
Pep Guardiola spent an incredible £220million in the most recent window in order to compete both domestically and in Europe.
The mega-money signings of Bernardo Silva, Kyle Walker, Danilo, Benjamin Mendy and Ederson really caught the eye.
In fact, Man City's squad now cost more to create than ANY other side in Europe's Big Five Leagues.
The £220m net spend pushed their squad value to an eye-popping £775m - even higher than Paris Saint-Germain.
PSG shattered the world record transfer fee to bring Neymar to the French capital from Barcelona for £198m.
But despite that they've been overtaken to the No1 spot, with a squad value of £773m.
Manchester United come in third on £713m, after their £60m spend this summer, with Chelsea - who spent £148m - in fourth, way back on £585m.
