"Really good. Txiki [Bergiristain] before and Hugo now. I am a little bit sad and upset because in net spend the last five years we are seventh in the Premier League. I want to be the first, I don't understand why the club don't spend more money. I am a little bit grumpy with them. But like we won in the past because we spent a lot."
"now six teams have to win the Premier Leagues, Champions Leagues and FA Cups because they spend more in the last five years. These are facts. It's not an opinion. You can say an opinion, like you say you play good or bad against Spurs - we can agree or disagree. But they are facts. Good luck to the six teams who are in front of us for net spend for the last five years. Let's go."
Manchester City ranked seventh for net transfer spend in the Premier League over the past five years. City were the biggest spenders in January again, signing Antoine Semenyo and Marc Guehi for around £84m after spending £180m the previous January. Transfermarkt numbers show City generated about £550m from player sales over five years. The club recouped more than £250m from academy product sales since 2020. Julian Alvarez left for Atletico Madrid for a record £81.5m in 2024 and Raheem Sterling moved to Chelsea for £50m. City won six of the last nine Premier League titles but claimed no major trophy last season.
