Every PREMIER LEAGUE CLUB’S NET SPEND IN 2024/25 SEASON

Every PREMIER LEAGUE CLUB’S NET SPEND IN 2024/25 SEASON

Premier League

 

Pep Guardiola, Mikel Arteta and Arne Slot surrounded by money and fire

As the 2024/25 winter window closed for another day, all 20 Premier League clubs let out a collective sigh before re-assessing their plans for the remainder of the campaign. No more incomings will be secured, and no more outgoings will be sanctioned.

 

It’s been a strange season so far: Arne Slot has made the transition to English football look seamless on the red side of Merseyside, Manchester City have been off the boil and the likes of Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth have made waves across the nation.

 

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Slot became the first manager in history to win as many as 14 of their first 16 games in charge of a Premier League club across all competitions.

 

But how has each team done from a net spend standpoint across both the summer and winter windows? Diving deeper into a) how much clubs have spent and b) how much they’ve banked from sales, we’ve ranked all 20 clubs in order using Transfermarkt.

 

20-16

Brighton & Hove Albion, Ipswich Town, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City

 

A club typically commended for their shrewd approach to transfers, Brighton & Hove Albion have accrued the largest net spend of all clubs – -£191.34m – across both windows. In a bid for a top half finish, and potential European football, the Seagulls saw the likes of Georginio Rutter and Yankuba Minteh arrive for big money with a smattering of bodies going the other way.

 

Premier League newbies Ipswich Town have also struggled to shift players off their books – as evidenced by their negative net spend of -£124.89m. Boss Kieran McKenna, in trying to stay afloat, has chucked the kitchen sink at the market.

 

Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur follow in 18th and 17th, respectively. The former have been notoriously bad in recent trading periods, especially in terms of getting those deemed surplus to requirements off the Old Trafford books.

Concluding the first category are Manchester City. Having endured a tough season so far, exacerbated by Rodri’s long-term injury, Pep Guardiola and his entourage spent big in the January transfer window on Omar Marmoush, Nico Gonzalez and the like – hence their overall net spend of -£84.80m.

West Ham United and Southampton have also burned more cash than they have banked. The former had what was perceived as one of the best summer windows, welcoming the likes of Maximilian Kilman of Crysencio Summerville to east London.

 

Their outlay of £120.23m has not exactly worked out, though, has it? Elsewhere, Bournemouth are flying up the English top flight with ease under Andoni Iraola’s stewardship and are doing so with a net spend of just -£49.71 million, despite pocketing a hefty fee for Dominic Solanke, one of the best strikers in the top division.

 

Leicester City, who boast a net spend of -£34.75m, have struggled with the hustle and bustle of Premier League football, while Arsenal – once again – have mounted a serious title charge, having spent £90.61m on incomings in recent windows. Overall, their net spend stands at -£20.88m.

Since Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital took over Chelsea, much of the transfer windows have been dominated by the Blues – particularly from an incomings point of view. The capital club have continued to spend big recently – £210.93m, to be precise – but their plethora of departures somewhat even out their net spend.

 

Fellow London-based outfits Brentford and Fulham follow a similar trend but at a much smaller scale. Both have not been scared to invest big in new players but have also acted in a professional manner when letting players go – as evidenced by the numbers.

Nottingham Forest have impressed under Nuno Espirito Santo’s watchful eye on the pitch, but their business has been equally impressive given there have been plenty of personnel changes seen over the last few years. Wolverhampton Wanderers round off the category with a net spend of -£8.90m.

Sitting at the summit of the table, Bergentheim-born Slot’s maiden season has gone swimmingly thus far – and that’s without entering the market to splash the cash. League leaders Liverpool have spent very little under the Dutchman, £34.95m, and have sold very little too – £39.66m.

 

Crystal Palace and Newcastle United, who have retained the services of Alexander Isak amid ever-flourishing interest, have both been exemplars in negotiations – and, as a result, are respectively fourth and third in terms of net spending over the last two windows.

Everton, too, who are now under the brief stewardship of David Moyes, have been careful after banking big money for Onana in the summer. Boasting a positive-looking net spend of £27.81m, the Toffees will be hoping that their approach pays off. Of all teams in the top flight, Unai Emery’s Aston Villa are, statistically, the best spenders.

 

Having spent plenty on the likes of midfield enforcer Amadou Onana and the versatile Ian Maatsen, their host of hefty incomings have been balanced out by earning £212.75m from sales, including their recent offloading of Jhon Duran. Overall, their 2024/25 net spend stands at an impressive positive of £34.50m.
