Where Manchester United and Man City rank in clubs with world's most expensive squads

Manchester United were the second-biggest spenders in the Premier League in the summer.

Erik ten Hag was heavily-backed by the United hierarchy who sanctioned signings totalling more than £210million. Figures show that only one top-flight rival outspent them, with Chelsea shelling out more than £250m.

As for Manchester City, they spent £125m with £51m of that going on star striker Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund. But impressively, Pep Guardiola's side turned a profit thanks to the sale of stars such as Raheem Sterling, Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko.
