In recent years, England has become the perfect destination for all the pearls of European football and this is due to the economic power of the clubs and the growth in competitiveness with respect to the Premier League. That is why, every time a window opens in the market, the English take over the future football promises of the old continent.
The signings have been so impressive that many clubs from the other leagues fear the departure of their stars during each season. In addition, there is also the economic power that allows them to offer outrageous sums in terms of chips.
At this end of the season and without the first transfer window having opened, Manchester City has already taken over the services of Erling Haaland, the Norwegian striker of 21 for five seasons and a record of 21 millions of euros.
On the other hand, Liverpool also broke the market with the signing of Uruguayan Darwin Núñez from Benfica in Portugal. Those of “Anfield” paid their clause of $75 million dollars plus $20 millions of dollars in bonuses to become the most lucrative signing in the history of the club.
The charrúa comes from being the sensation in the Portuguese league with the most 30 goals in 40 games and will land in Klopp’s team to replace Sadio Mané who he will probably go to Bayern Munich; after his success in the Premier League
Manchester United is bidding hard to get the services of Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong. In the first instance they offered $60 million dollars to FC Barcelona, but the Catalans will not sell the footballer for less than $85 millions of dollars.
Last season, the “Red Devils” hired Englishman Jadon Sancho for $77 million dollars, who arrived from Borussia Dortmund in a record transfer for the League, after being one of the most expensive in the history of English football.
In January, Luis Díaz preferred to accept Liverpool’s offer and after a few months under the command of Jurgen Klopp, the Colombian has taken over the ownership of “Anfield” and will now be accompanied by Mohamed Salah and the aforementioned Darwin Núñez.
Real Madrid has been one of the few clubs in the other European leagues that has been able to hire one of the pearls of world football with succulent offers. In addition, the sports project and its history have served to seduce these footballers.
In the first instance, they brought in Frenchman Eduardo Camavinga for $40 million dollars, while a few days ago they announced also the arrival of the German defender Antonio Rudiger and also the French Aurélien Tchouaméni for more than $80 million dollars.
Despite this, the Spanish, Italian, German and French clubs are far below in terms of signings over the English teams that continue to raise their wallets to continue dominating football on the old continent.
Of course, despite this, Liverpool and Chelsea FC have been the only ones with the ability to lift the UEFA Champions League in recent seasons. Not even Manchester City, that is why they have sought to strengthen themselves with Erling Haaland.
Finally, we will have to wait for the new transfer window to open to begin to see what the new movements will be in terms of footballers who appear as promises in world football and other veterans who are looking for new challenges, such as the case of Robert Lewandowski with FC Barcelona.
