Big deal! As: Real Madrid spent 172 million yuan this summer and yellow potential 100 million yuan, and the two teams account for 40% of La Liga transfer fees

"As" reported that in the summer window, about 680 million euros were invested in La Liga, of which the expenditure of the two clubs, Real Madrid and Villarreal, accounted for 40% of the total, totaling up to 280 million euros.

Real Madrid spent 172 million euros this summer to introduce four new players, namely Mastantono (63 million euros), Heisen (50 million euros), Carreras (50 million euros) and Arnold (8 million euros). However, Real Madrid earned little in player sales, earning 2 million euros only by selling Alvaro Rodriguez.

In sharp contrast to Real Madrid is Villarreal's business model. To consolidate its Champions League program, the club spent 101 million euros under the guidance of head coach Marcellino to bring in ten new players, including Mikautaz, who set a record transfer fee for team history for 30 million euros.

The key is that Villarreal's huge investment is almost entirely covered by player sales, and they achieved a break-even balance by selling players. However, club CEO Roig Negroles made it clear that such a large-scale investment is due to the special circumstances of participating in the Champions League and is not the norm for the team in the future.
