The "Blaugranas" dominates the transfer market. It doesn't matter if the big debt she has been carrying for a long time

Barcelona dominates the transfer market. It doesn't matter if the big debt she has been carrying for a long time continues to torment her and create various problems for her. Its president, Joan Laporta is making great efforts to reduce the heavy debt and with various other actions to be able to manage the name of the great club as best as possible. Whichever way you look at it, it sells a lot. So Laporta with some clever manipulations managed to sell shares of the television rights of Barcelona (25%) and Barca Studios (25%) for the next 10 years!!


Barcelona,​​on the other hand, chose to move very "aggressively" in this year's summer transfer "bazaar". The goal of Xavi and of course the administration is to strengthen its soul potential, so that it can enter strongly again in the big game of claiming LaLiga and star in or even conquer the new Champions League.


Despite the fact that their finances are very "squeezed", they are so far the team that has spent the most money (153 million Euros) of any other in Europe, acquiring what interests them and believes that it will strengthen them to a great extent. Leaving far behind her in the relevant list her "eternal" rival, Real Madrid., but of course also the English ones, Manchester City, Liverpool, Manchester United, the French Paris Saint-Germain, and even the particularly ambitious this year, Bayern Munich...


Chelsea are up


Meanwhile in the last few days we see the new management of Chelsea, apparently and after the pressures of Thomas Tuchel showing a great zeal to strengthen their team, which has received two ... defeats on the issues of Rafinha and Koute. So it is almost a step from the acquisition of the Spaniard, Marc Cucurella of Brighton, while for 16 million euros he took from Aston Villa, the new talent of English football, the 18-year-old midfielder, Carney Chukwuemeka.


At the same time, it is characteristic that in the Top-20 clubs with the most expensive transfer investments this summer, there are 10 teams of the Premier League, with the new Nottingham Forest, owned by Vangelis Marinakis, being in 8th place, having spent so far 94,750,000 euro.


Note that we do not mention footballers (Pogba, Di Maria, etc.) who have been acquired as free agents...


The list of the 20 teams that have spent the largest amounts until August 2 is:
