Liverpool has made headlines by spending $570 million in transfer fees this summer, highlighted by the additions of Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak. This article explores the ranking of these transfers among the most expensive in soccer history.

This summer, Liverpool has made significant splashes in the soccer transfer market, spending an astounding $570 million on new players, primarily featuring Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak. Both players are anticipated to contribute to Liverpool’s success, aiding their pursuit of additional titles, including the coveted Champions League.

Here’s how the recent transfers rank in the history of soccer:

  1. Neymar: $239 million (Barcelona to PSG, 2017)

    • Neymar’s transfer remains the highest in soccer history, although injuries have hampered his ability to fully justify the price.
  2. Kylian Mbappe: $194 million (Monaco to PSG, 2017)

    • Mbappe’s impact has been tremendous, with multiple domestic titles to his name ever since joining PSG.
  3. Philippe Coutinho: $192 million (Liverpool to Barcelona, 2018)

    • Coutinho’s tenure at Barcelona has been underwhelming, marked by injuries and a subsequent loan to Bayern.

  5. Florian Wirtz: $156 million (if add-ons achieved; Bayer Leverkusen to Liverpool, 2025)

  6. Moises Caicedo: $146 million (Brighton to Chelsea, 2023)
