The Premier League has had another dramatic transfer window, but rather than consign it to the past and get on with the season at hand, we’re addressing one burning question: In 30 years of Premier League football, who is the greatest transfer of all time?
As part of our special award to celebrate the Premier League’s anniversary, Arsenal have three nominations out of the 30 in Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Patrick Vieira.
Dennis Bergkamp was Bruce Rioch’s first signing as manager and possibly the only positive moment in his tenure. At £7.5million, Rioch broke Arsenal’s previous record by £5m and introduced the Gunners to the man whose two goal-of-the-season winners are still judged as two of the best strikes in Premier League history.
