Hi guys, I wonder what are the reasons why english top clubs are spending fewer money this summer compared to the last years? After all, the transfer windows closes next week and the biggest signings of your league are arguably Rodri and Pépé.
I don't want to start stupid league comparisons, for "my" Bundesliga those signings would obviously be very huge.
Is it because of financial fair play reasons?
Is it because of the fear of the (no deal) brexit and perhaps a stricter "more english players in every team" rule?
Or do you think that there will be many big signings in the last week? I know of the rumors about you and Dybala as well as Cancelo to City, but other than that? What about Liverpool? What about the Spurs?
To verify that the lack of big transfers is not only a feeling of mine, I checked the sum of transfer fees your whole league spent this year compared to the last years. -> https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/premier-league/transfers/wettbewerb/GB1/
Let's compare the net spend of the last years:
2014: 504mio pounds
2015: 763mio pounds
2016: 763mio pounds
2017: 827mio pounds
2018: 1097mio pounds
2019: 519mio pounds
What do you think?
