8) Manchester United, 2014 – €196m
It’s too early to judge Louis van Gaal’s summer spree fully, but things aren’t looking great so far. Marcos Rojo looks massively overpriced at £16m, Luke Shaw will cost them £50m+ when his wages are considered, Radamel Falcao is costing them a quarter of a million pounds a week to sit on the bench and Daley Blind has barely featured.
