Manchester United's current squad 'is the most expensive in history'

Manchester United's current squad is the most expensive in football history, according to research from the CIES Football Observatory. The world-record acquisition of Paul Pogba from Juventus took the Reds' spending to more than £600m ($771.4m), and into unprecedented territory.

United appointed Premier League-winning boss Jose Mourinho during the summer and his arrival sparked a spending frenzy, with United agreeing deals for Eric Bailly, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, as well as the purchase of Pogba from Juventus.
