Premier League clubs spent a total of 1.26 billion on transfers in the summer.The record fee for a goalkeeper was broken twice, while Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez was the most expensive outfield signing at 60 million.11
10. Fred (Shakhtar Donetsk toManchester United) – 52m
A lot was expected of the Brazilian midfielder when he joined Manchester United in June, but he has endured a difficult time in England so far. He finds himself behind Paul Pogba, Marouane Fellaini, Nemanja Matic and Ander Herrera in the midfield pecking order following a series of average performances.Club legend Gary Neville even questioned Freds hefty price tag. Does he change a game? Does it look like he’s going to defend your goal? Does it look like he’s going to connect back-to-front? At this moment in time, no, he said.119. Yerry Mina (Barcelona to Everton) – 28.5m
He couldve been public enemy number one if his late equaliser against England had gone on to knock them out of the World Cup.The towering Colombia defender impressed in the summers competition, which earned him a move to Everton. Injuries and a lack of fitness saw him wait almost two months to make his Toffees debut, but fans eventually saw him for the first time in the dying moments of the 3-1 win over Brighton at the start of November.118. Fabinho (Monaco to Liverpool) – 43.7m
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has been wary of rushing Fabinho into his starting XI. The midfield powerhouse has been left out of squads or he has been an unused substitute in most of the Reds games this season.117. Naby Keita (RB Leipzig to Liverpool) – 48m
Keita has shown glimpses of brilliance since joining Liverpool. Starting their first two games of the season, his energy in midfield was invaluable.But a culmination of back and hamstring injuries has hampered his Reds career.116. Felipe Anderson (Lazio to West Ham) – 35m
West Hams club-record signing has started all of the Hammers opening 12 league games, scoring four goals.Coming from the Italian league, it took the Brazilian a few weeks to get used to the speed of the Premier League before netting and starring in a 3-1 win over Manchester United at the end of September.Getty Images115. Riyad Mahrez (Leicester City to Manchester City) – 60m
Mahrez is showing why Manchester City chased his signature for so long. So far he has scored six goals in his last 11 games and has displaced Leroy Sane in the first-team.A below-par display on his debut against Arsenal meant he had to wait patiently for another chance to impress and a late penalty miss to win the game against Liverpool couldve affected his confidence.114. KepaArrizabalaga (Athletic Bilbao to Chelsea) – 71m
He had big boots to fill after Thibaut Courtois ended a summer of speculation by joining Real Madrid. And Kepa, who was relatively unknown in England, has looked like a more than capable replacement.113. Alisson (Roma to Liverpool) – 66.8m
He has been placed higher than Kepa on our list because of his importance to this Liverpool team. Conceding goals has been a problem for the Reds over the last three seasons with error-prone goalkeepers Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius between the sticks. However, since joining for a club-record fee from Roma, Alisson has solidified what used to be a leaky backline.112. Jorginho (Napoli to Chelsea) – 50 million
He was a long-term transfer target of Manchester Citys, but in the end Jorginho joined Chelsea to reunite with Maurizio Sarri, his manager at Napoli for the three previous seasons.Jorginho has been vital to Chelseas unbeaten start to the season he is the heartbeat of the Blues midfield where he operates in the holding role of a midfield three. The Italy international has controlled games with his immaculate passing.111. Richarlison (Watford to Everton) – 50m
There were questions raised when Everton splashed 50m on Richarlison. The winger had struggled for form in the second half of last season with Watford, failing to register a goal or assist since November.But he has drastically turned that woeful form around by scoring six goals in 10 league appearances. He has become the first name on the team sheet and has even been deployed as a striker at the expense of Cenk Tosun in recent weeks.11Chelsea winger Willian believes Callum Hudson-Odoi will become 'one of the best players' over the next few seasons and rates him so highly he has even told the youngster he wants to be his agent.
Maurizio Sarri: 'Callum Hudson-Odoi is ready. He can play
Toronto Croatia didn't score a goal in the second leg of their Canadian Soccer League championship series with the Serbian White Eagles. It turns out they didn't need one, meaning Croatia's 4-1 victory in Saturday's first leg was enough to give the Mississauga, Ont.-based team the title.
