PREMIER LEAGUE: Manchester City spend almost £20m per player

Premier League leaders have splashed the cash to win things

Manchester City have spent an average of £19.93m (28.3m euro) per player - and now sit top of the Premier League.

Their players are slightly more expensive on average than Manchester United (27.4m euro - £19.29m) with champions Chelsea third on 21.9m euro (£15.42m).

City's summer purchase of Kevin De Bruyne for £50m and Raheem Sterling for £49m have hugely inflated the price of their squad.

Newly-promoted Bournemouth broke their spending records to bring in Tyrone Mings (£7.91m) and  Max Gradel (£7m) but their squad is worth just £500,000 per player.

And Leicester City might be top of the table but their squad is worth just £1.76m per man (2.5m euro).

The whole Premier League table is below, with average player worth per euro shown.
