The second most expensive PSG squad in the world!

This Tuesday, the statistician twitter account Pop Foot unveiled the top 20 clubs with the most expensive squads in the world, in purchase value only. A ranking dominated among others by PSG.

Indeed, in this game we can see that three clubs largely dominate the others, namely PSG and the two Manchesters. With a purchase value of its workforce of almost 850 million euros, the capital club ranks second behind Manchester City’s 995 million, and ahead of Manchester United’s 769 million. A ranking strongly influenced by the arrivals of Neymar and Kylian Mbappé, who alone represent 400 million euros for PSG, the only French representative in the table.

In the rest of the ranking, we quite logically find a strong English tone, with no less than eleven clubs from across the Channel in the top 20, including clubs less upscale than the Big 6 such as West Ham, Aston Villa or Leicester. Behind England, the most represented country is Spain, with three teams, namely Real Madrid (7^th), Atlético Madrid (9^th) and FC Barcelona (10^th). Italy also have three representatives, with Juventus (6^th), Napoli (17^th) and AS Roma (19^th).
