Real Madrid Club falls down big spenders table

Being seen as the richest club in the world according to the Forbes list, Real Madrid do not invest their millions on players.

Since last summer, Florentino Perez has invested 115 million euros on signings, compared to the 250 million euros spent by Manchester City, the first club on the list.

Danilo, Casemiro, Lucas Vázquez, Kiko Casilla and Kovacic arrived in the summer of 2015 for just over 80 million and this summer, the return of Morata was just 30 million euros and their only piece of business this window to date.

Three Spanish clubs top the list of spending: Atletico Madrid (184 million euros) Valencia (153 million euros) and Barcelona (130 million).

Even Jiangsu Suning, one of the teams of the Chinese league, has spent more than Los Blancos since 2015.

The Chinese spenders have bought up to 10 players and have spent up to 116 million euros on players such as Alex Teixeira ( Shakhtar 50 million euros) and Ramires (Chelsea for 28 million).

The last time Los Blancos occupied the first position was between the 2013/14 and 2014/15 campaigns, when 75 million was spent on James Rodriguez and another 25m on Toni Kroos.
