1. Harry Maguire (Leicester City to Manchester United, ÂŁ80 million, August 2019)

In July 2019, Manchester United made a ÂŁ70 million bid for Maguire, a year after the club backed down from a deal because the same fee was considered too high. They made an improved bid, believed to be ÂŁ80 million, which was accepted by Leicester on 2 August. The fee surpasses the ÂŁ75 million Liverpool paid for Virgil van Dijk in January 2018, making Maguire the world’s most expensive defender.
