Sunderland squad value compared to Premier League rivals ahead of final week of the transfer window

Sunderland are hoping to add a third signing as the window enters its final week, and here is how their squad value compares across the Premier League.

The squad has been overhauled since promotion via last May’s Championship play-off final win against Sheffield United. Several Wembley winners departed and a raft of arrivals helped turn newcomers into Europa League qualifiers within 12 months under Regis Le Bris.

Belgium international Thomas Meunier and Toulouse left-back Dayaan Methalie have already joined. Reports in Belgium suggest Sunderland are closing in on a £10m deal for Royal Antwerp midfielder Jules Ahoka, with one of his team-mates said to have discussed the move in a weekend meeting.

More than £2.1 billion has been spent elsewhere this summer. According to TransferMarkt, these are the current squad valuations across the top flight, in euros.

Arsenal €1.45bn

Manchester City €1.36bn

Chelsea €1.35bn

Liverpool €964.50m

Manchester United €874.30m
