That`s what they normally spend.
Let`s put this into perspective.
Money spent is LESS THAN HALF spent in the summer of 2019 at this moment.Chelsea have spent a large chunk of that ,because they haven`t spent anything for 18 months because of a transfer ban.
The majority of clubs would like to get their transfer business done before the opening day,which is just 3 days away.
But,by chance,if you are right,I will be the first to congratulate you and give you a virtual handshake.
I am already correct.
Clubs spending like they always have done.
Villa spending £30 million on a Championship CF. Unheard of.
Final figures are irrelevant as we can all see that Covid has had NO affect on football.
I accept your handshake. Thank you.

Villa spent £144m in the summer of 2019
Arsenal have spent £33m in the summer of 2020

Everton spent £118.5m in 2019
Man City have spent £62m in 2020
Man City spent £138.4m in 2019
Man Utd have spent £39m in 2020
