The 2025 Premier League summer window actually set an all-time record: £3.19 billion spent, up from £2.46 billion in 2023. Liverpool alone broke the transfer record twice (Isak for £125 m and Wirtz for £100 m+), while Arsenal led net spending with big signings like Gyökeres and Eze. Even newly promoted sides such as Sunderland outspent PSG on a net basis, which is wild.
Unsurprisingly, Arsenal and Liverpool are now leading the table — a clear reflection of how spending power is translating directly into early-season results.
