We take a look at which have been the most expensive contracts the merengue team has made throughout its history.
Real Madrid has historically been one of the most invested clubs in the transfer market and one of the major promoters of summer contracts.
The meringues have produced some of the most expensive purchases in world football history, many signed by Florentino Pérez from the offices. For example, both Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale were the most expensive signings in history at the time, both eventually justified it on the field by winning many titles, as was the case with Zidane. The list also includes other stars such as Beckham, Ronaldo or the controversial payment of Figo’s release clause to Barcelona.
The most expensive acquisitions in the history of Real Madrid: which players they are, prices and in what years they were
Not all signings have had the expected success, without going further, Hazard is the most expensive signing in the club’s history, but he has not yet delivered the expected performance on the field due to injuries. Something similar has also happened with big investments like those of Kaka or Luka Jovic.
Other big purchases provided glorious moments, but were not very regular, such as Anelka, Robben or James Rodríguez. There are also investments that now seem like bargains, such as the transfers of Vinicius, Kroos or Modric that see their performance and in the case of the latter two their extensive track record.
