Quiz: Top 10 sales

[The Great Mass Debater 1,090]

For this one unfortunately it's not about profit, just the fee sold for. Also, rule for this round - only one name at a time. As before, fees in Euros. Also definitely dispute a number of the figures. But hey, it's transfermarkt

Where are these figures from?  We are never told the fees, they are guesswork at best…be interesting to see the figure for Emi.

Essentially you need to name the most recent sales, due to the way the transfer market exploded in the last few years

A complicating factor is separating the basic fee from the add-ons. Sometimes, but not always, the post-balance sheet figures in the annual accounts can helpful for inward deals. For example, the figures coming out of Brazil for the Sara transfer suggested the basic fee was around £10m, but the accounts indicated it was £6m-£7m. And I believe the basic fee for Buendia was £33m rather than £38m or a bit more.

So allowing for inflation and at current exchange rates, we sold Sutton (then a British record) for an amount somewhere in between Pritchard and Murphy? The games gone mad!
