Transfer deadline day 2024: Premier League January spending falls to 12-year low

Related Topics: Premier League

Spending by Premier League clubs in January dipped to a 12-year low after three successive record-breaking windows.

Just £30m in disclosed fees was spent on deadline day, another considerable drop on the £275m spent on the same day 12 months ago.

There were only 17 permanent transfers made by Premier League clubs during the window, with a further 13 loan deals - including seven permanent and six loan deals on deadline day.

Despite the relatively modest January spend the 2023-24 season still has the second-highest transfer spend ever, with £2.5bn splashed out in total over both transfer windows - driven by clubs' record-breaking expenditure in the summer.
