Chelsea broke the English Premier League record after spending the sum of £271.1million in a single transfer window over the summer, dailymail reports.
The Thomas Tuchel’s side signed 11 players before the window ended at 11pm on Thursday night.
The newly signed players include Wesley Fofana (£69.5m), Denis Zakaria (loan), Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£10m), Marc Cucurella (£62m), Raheem Sterling (£50m), Kalidou Koulibaly (£34m), and Gabriel Slonina (£13m).
Others are Carney Chukwuemeka (£20m), Cesare Casadei (£12.6m), Eddie Beach (undisclosed) and Omari Hutchinson (undisclosed).
According to the report, the new co-owner, Todd Boehly, ensured that Chelsea’s summer spending broke Manchester City’s record for most money invested in a single window, which they set at £223.65m in 2017.
Chelsea paid £50m for Sterling who left Manchester in search of more regular playing time ahead of this winter’s World Cup in Qatar.
The Blues also confirmed the signing of Koulibaly from Napoli in a deal worth £34m on a four-year deal.
Tuchel signed Cucurella from Brighton on a six-year deal while Zakaria completed a season-long loan move to Chelsea from Juventus on deadline day.
