Andre Gray made a big-money move to Burnley from Brentford
Championship teams spent £100m in the summer transfer window – far more than second-tier teams in Germany, Italy, Spain and France.
Big-money purchases, such as Andre Gray's move to Burnley and Moses Odubajo's switch to Hull City, propelled Championship transfer spending to its enormous total, which was four times as much as second-best Bundesliga B (£25.5m)
Serie B (£14.6m), Liga Adelante (£3.65m) and Ligue 2 (£730,000) clubs were extremely modest spenders in comparison, according to the Soccerex Transfer Review 2016.
The spending by Championship clubs reflects the trend seen in the top flight, where Premier League sides splashed a record-breaking £885.85m on new players this summer – a 14 per cent rise on last year.*
