Premier League overspend table: How Man Utd and Man City’s transfer business compares to Chelsea, Liverpool and rivals - gallery

It proved to be a busy summer transfer window for both Manchester City and Manchester United.

Both clubs spend significant amounts of money in a bid to improve their respective squads, with City splashing a large chunk of their spending on Josko Gvardiol, while Rasmus Hojlund was United’s marquee signings. Though, plenty of other Premier League clubs also spent big, and with that in mind, we have taken a look at how much each club has overspent according to Transfermarkt’s player values.

All fees come from the same source, and loan signings do not factor into the overspending total. Those who have a minus next to their total have done the best business, and we start with those clubs, counting up to the biggest overspenders. Take a look below to see where City and United rank.
