After the 2023 summer transfer window, here’s how all 24 Championship teams compare for total squad market value.
The 2023 summer transfer window in the EFL Championship was a historic one with a total of over £214 million spent across the 24 teams.
From Leeds United buying Joël Piroe from Swansea City for £12 million to Shea Charles switching Manchester City for Southampton in a £10.5 million package, there have been some mighty transfers.
The other most expensive deals include Harry Winks to Leicester City (£10 million), Ross Stewart to Southampton (£9 million), Haji Wright to Coventry City (£7.7 million) and Tom Cannon to Leicester City (£7.5 million).
Some teams have had to spend a tad wiser, with Birmingham City being a terrific example. Blues only had to lay out around £7 million for 13 new signings and sold Jobe Bellingham and Tahith Chong to fund it all.
With so much money spent – and lots of players sold around the division – there have been some major changes to the ‘market values table’. Here’s how all 24 clubs now rank, as well as their most valuable assets.

1. 24th: Rotherham United - £14.4m
Most valuable player: Viktor Johnasson - £2.6m

2. 23rd: Plymouth Argyle - £15.5m
Most valuable player: Luke Cundle - £2.6m (on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers)

3. 22nd: Sheffield Wednesday - £16.8m
Most valuable player: John Buckley - £2.6m (on loan from Blackburn Rovers)

4. 21st: Ipswich Town - £23.7m
Most valuable player: Brandon Williams - £7m (on loan from Manchester United)
