Last year some massive business, including moves in excess of £100 million for Declan Rice and Moises Caicedo to Arsenal and Chelsea respectively. Liverpool had a midfield reschuffle as they Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Alister joined their ranks, while Aston Villa signed Moussa Diaby, Pau Torres and Youri Tielemans to strengthen for the Champions League push.
It’s unlikely to be as wild of a window this time around as several teams are walking a tightrope with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability (PSR) rules, including Villa and Wolves. There will still be activity, though, with many internal deals expected to come to fruition in the Premier League.
Wolves surpassing all expectations last season by completely avoiding a relegation battle - and even looking like potential European contenders at one stage - has increased the stock of various players. As a team, the Old Gold have moved well up the ranks compared to other sides in the division when it comes to total squad value.
But which clubs in the Premier League have the highest? And who are their most expensive assets? From first to last, here’s a full run-through, as per figures from Transfermarkt.
