Breakdown of Sheikh Mansour's spending at Manchester City
Total transfer spending - £355 million (includes £130 million this summer and £140 million last summer)
Total "committed" on wages for new signings and on new contracts for existing players - £487.8 million
Cost of takeover - £210 million
Capital expenditure on improving stadium, training ground and other projects - £20 million
Total "committed" outlay - £1.08 billion
Cheers mate. That is absolutely staggering figure!
And some complain about the price of the £500 (around £25 a match) SC. When you look at those figures, my £420 really does pale into significance!
In the words of my Old Man, "Life will never be the same without Man City, so get it in while you can".
