Manchester City easily topped the spending charts in the January transfer window with the signing of Spanish midfielder Nico Gonzalez on Deadline Day to complete a busy month for the ailing Premier League champions.
City's spending of more than 180 million pounds ($223.58 million) was the second-biggest outlay ever worldwide by a club in the January transfer window behind Chelsea's 274 million pounds in 2023, according to Transfermarkt.
City paid Porto 60 million euros ($62.06 million) for 23-year-old Gonzalez -- their fourth major signing in the window.
Elsewhere in Europe it was a quiet month of trading although Paris St Germain did buy exciting Georgia winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli for 70 million euros ($72.25 million)and handed him the number seven shirt vacated by Kylian Mbappe.
Neymar returned to his childhood club Santos after parting ways with Al-Hilal by mutual consent, after a disappointing spell at the Saudi Pro League champions for Brazil's all-time top scorer.
