Clubs have had to spend large transfer fees to recruit Neymar, Harry Kane, Declan Rice this summer.

On September 2, the summer transfer market officially closed in Europe’s leading football championships. Here are the 7 most valuable deals in this transfer period.

7. Neymar: From PSG to Al Hilal
Transfer value: 90 million euros

After 6 years of working, superstar Neymar decided to leave PSG to move to Saudi Arabia to play for Al Hilal. Despite having four years left on his contract, Neymar still left because he no longer felt comfortable at PSG. On the opposite side, the French team also lost patience with players who often get injured at important times.

To get Neymar’s services, Al Hilal had to spend up to 90 million euros, making the Brazilian striker the player with the highest total transfer price in history (400 million euros). However, Neymar has not been able to play for Al Hilal because of an injury. Some sources say Neymar will soon return this September.

6. Josko Gvardiol (From Leipzig to Man City)
Transfer value: 90 million euros

Only 21 years old, Gvardiol has proven himself with impressive performances for Leipzig and Croatia. Realizing Gvardiol’s great potential, Champions League champions Man City spent 90 million euros to recruit this defender.

Joining the new team, Gvardiol was quickly given the opportunity to officially play. Coach Pep Guardiola is probably trying to test the Croatian when he plays alternately at central defender and left-back. In every task, Gvardiol fulfills his role.

5. Randal Kolo Muani (From Frankfurt to PSG)
Transfer value: 95 million euros

Many experts believe that PSG was too hasty in spending up to 95 million euros to bring in 24-year-old striker Muani. In fact, Muani only really emerged last season when he scored 23 goals in 46 matches for Frankfurt.

However, PSG’s bosses still decided to spend heavily because they just got an additional 90 million euros from the Neymar deal. Not having much time, PSG promoted this deal very quickly. Muani himself also put pressure on the host team by skipping practice. Finally, Muani landed at PSG on the last day of the transfer window.

4. Harry Kane (From Tottenham to Bayern)

Transfer value: 100 million euros

Tottenham was forced to sell Kane in this summer transfer window because the English player’s contract was about to expire. However, Tottenham also caused many difficulties for Bayern in negotiations. However, in the end the German champion was successful in the third offer.

Switching to a new team, Kane has the opportunity to quench his thirst for titles that have lasted throughout his career until now. The English player also showed a quick rhythm with 3 goals and 1 assist after the first 2 matches in the Bundesliga.

3. Jude Bellingham (From Dortmund to Real)
Transfer value: 103 million euros

Bellingham is the most expensive deal in La Liga in the summer transfer window of 2023. Real has spent 103 million euros to own a 20-year-old player from Dortmund. In the context of Real’s farewell to Karim Benzeman and Vinicius Jr’s injury, Bellingham became the hope of the club’s attack.

The young striker did not disappoint the fans’ expectations. Bellingham scored in all four matches for his new team. In the most recent match on September 2, Bellingham scored the decisive goal to help Real overcome Getafe with a score of 2-1.

2. Moises Caicedo (From Brighton to Chelsea)
Transfer value: 116 million euros

In an effort to regain its past glory, Chelsea continued to spend heavily in this year’s summer transfer window. The most expensive contract is midfielder Caicedo from Brighton with a price of up to 116 million euros.

In fact, Caicedo is just a potential name, so the fee paid by Chelsea is overestimated. Until now, Caicedo itself has not met expectations. After 3 matches for Chelsea, this player made 2 errors leading to the goal and the whole competition, the club received defeat.

1. Declan Rice (From West Ham to Arsenal)
Transfer value: 116.6 million euros

Desiring to find a quality name to replace Granit Xhaka, Arsenal decided to spend up to 116.6 million euros to bring in Declan Rice. According to Transfermarkt, this is also the most expensive deal in this year’s summer transfer period.

On the new team, Rice was immediately given a starting position in the midfield. The English player also affirmed his talent by recovering the ball well and regulating the match effectively. Up to this point, Arsenal remained unbeaten in all four matches in which Rice appeared.
