Manchester United most expensive signings: How Red Devils splashed over £2 billion on incoming transfers

Manchester United are one of the most decorated clubs in the history of English football.

The Red Devils have won more major trophies than any other English club and have clinched the most Premier League/English top division titles.

A major chunk of their successes came in the last three decades and mostly during the era of their legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson, who guided the team to multiple titles, including 13 Premier League, two Champions League, five FA Cups and four League Cups among many others

However, the Red Devils' success has come at a price as they have spent more than £2 billion in the 21st century years on player signings.

Just at the turn of the century, United spent £41.4m to sign Rio Ferdinand, which was the club's record signing until Angel Di Maria joined in 2014 for £ 67.5m from Real Madrid.

But most of their big spending came in the last decade when cash started flowing out of Old Trafford at an increasingly high pace. The likes of Antony, Casemiro, Paul Pogba, Harry Maguire and Jadon Sancho joined the club in the last 10 years for mammoth transfer fees.
