From Manchester United to Liverpool: Transfer Failures
Previous articles have concluded that large expenditures in the transfer market do not always guarantee desired results on the pitch, as several Premier League clubs have experienced clear failures despite heavy spending. Notable examples include Manchester United (2017-2018), which finished as runners-up but was prematurely eliminated from the Champions League; Chelsea (2022-2023), which invested over $640 million yet finished in 12th place; Everton (2019-2020), whose signings still saw them end the season in 12th position. Other failures include West Ham (2024-2025), after spending £190 million; Liverpool (2025-2026), which dropped to fifth place despite investing over £510 million; and finally Southampton (2022-2023), which was relegated to the Championship despite a policy of signing young talents. These cases demonstrate that success in the transfer market is reflected in performance on the field, not just the amount of money spent.
