The 2022 summer transfer window saw about 20 clubs spend a record £1.92bn according to financial services organization Deloitte.

Premier League clubs spent about £255m on deadline day alone, which is more than double of £120m spent on last summer’s deadline day deals.

This means that the 2023-24 season has already recorded the second-highest transfer spend ever after last season’s £2.73 billion.

Lead partner in Deloitte’s Sports Business Group, Tim Bridge stated that: “A second successive summer of record spending by Premier League clubs suggests that year-on-year revenue growth could return following the pandemic.”

“Nearly three-quarters of Premier League clubs (14) spent more this summer than the last, reflecting the increased intensity of competition.”

“There continues to be pressure on clubs to acquire top talent to satisfy their on-pitch objectives, whether that’s qualifying for European competition or simply maintaining their position in the Premier League.”

What Are The Biggest Incoming Summer Signings?

Futballnews takes a look at the biggest transfers that happened in the summer in the Premier League:

Moises Caicedo – £100m

One of the biggest summer deals in the Premier League was the deal between Chelsea and Brighton for Ecuadorian player Moises Caicedo.

The Blues signed the midfielder from the Seagulls for a British-record fee of £115m on an eight-year contract.

Chelsea paid an initial £100m for Caicedo and will also pay £15m in performance-related add-ons.

The contract has an option for a further year and Brighton inserted a sell-on clause that was described as “significant” as part of the deal.

Liverpool rivaled Chelsea for the star by agreeing a £111m deal for Caicedo, but he eventually stated that he wanted the move to Stamford Bridge.

Declan Rice – £100m

Arsenal also were another team that broke the bank this summer by signing Declan Rice from West Ham.

The deal saw the Gunners smash their transfer record of £72m paid to sign Nicolas Pepe from Lille in 2019.

The deal also saw the Englishman become the most expensive British player in Premier League history.

Rice’s deal also eclipsed the £100m Manchester City paid to sign Jack Grealish from Aston Villa two years ago.

Speaking on his signing, Rice said: “It’s been a bit overwhelming because of my relationship with West Ham. [With] the love and support I have for them, it’s been really hard to walk away.”

Josko Gvardiol – £77m
