Man Utd replace Juventus in world’s top 10 most valuable squads after Bruno Fernandes arrival


MANCHESTER UNITED’S signing of Bruno Fernandes has elevated them into the top 10 of the world’s most expensive squads.

The Red Devils forked out £55million for the Portuguese international last month to help bolster their midfield options.

Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is prepared to make Fernandes a key cog in his side having started him in the 0-0 draw against Wolves despite joining just 48 hours before.

And although he didn’t have an immediate impact in the Premier League, his addition means the Reds have leapfrogged Juventus with their total squad worth.

Despite their struggles this campaign, Solskjaer’s team is worth a whopping £720.68m in total.

Juventus, despite having stars including Cristiano Ronaldo and Paulo Dybala, drop to 11th with a squad worth £686.25m.

It means no Italian side is in the top 10, with Prem clubs dominating instead.

Although those values could reverse in the summer if United flog £89m star Paul Pogba back to the Old Lady in the summer.

With information provided by OddsMonkey, unsurprisingly it’s Manchester City who top the bill with a squad total of £1.16bn.

Liverpool are close behind, also eclipsing £1bn with the two LaLiga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona sitting in third and fourth.



Paris Saint-Germain, despite boasting the two most valuable players in the world in £162m Kylian Mbappe and £198m Neymar, sit fifth with a total squad value of £910.62m.

The rest of the top ten is occupied by Bayern Munich, Tottenham, Atletico Madrid and Chelsea.

Arsenal sit in 12th with £625.10m with Leicester and Everton taking 18th and 19th in the table.
