Transfer dealings 2013/14

Like before, a little transfer round-up for you.

Income

Total received by our clubs was just over £307m, slightly down on last year but an average return. That total was swelled by the £86m spent by Real Madrid on The CFJs' Gareth Bale. Only three other teams exceeded £20m in transfer income.

Expenditure

Two teams dominated this season as the total of £468m was the lowest spent for four seasons. Those two teams splashed out £160m between them while five managers spent only £12m or less.

Total business

Losses across the league this season were around £160m, £40m less than last year. One team accounted for £63m of that while three more lost in excess of £25m.

Three teams turned a profit with one turning in the second highest figure of the last eight seasons at £26m+.

Over that eight season period half of the teams are in excess of £85m in the red on their transfer dealings.
