Atlético's squad, the eleventh most expensive in Europe

The CIES Football Observatory has published the ranking of teams from the five major European leagues that have spent the most money to make their current squads. This report does not take into account the amount paid by the clubs for transfers, but rather what they have paid to have these players in the squads for the 20/21 season. Neither the salaries or the current value of the footballers. That is to say, what was paid to sign Joao, Costa or Savic is taken into account, but not what was entered by Griezmann, Lucas or Thomas.

Atlético de Madrid
it is in position number 11 in this study, with an expenditure of 483 million euros. Of that amount, 120 ‘kilos’ correspond to Joao F
elix, for which last summer, the rojiblanco club paid that amount to Benfica, the amount established in its termination clause.

Obviously, Atlético is the third LaLiga team in this ranking, surpassed by Barcelona (826 million) and Real
Madrid (708). At a general level, the one who leads this table is the Manchester City, with spending on footballers signings of 1036 million euros. It is followed by PSG (888) and third is the Manchester United (844).

As a curiosity, note that the Everton directed by Carlo Ancelotti he has been placed in the tenth position of this classification with an expenditure of 504 ‘kilos’ after a very busy summer in Liverpool. Of course, those of Klopp they are still above, with 666 million.

Another aspect to highlight is the position of Bayern Munich, current champion of Europe. The German club is the 15th, with a spending of 408 million in transfers.
