Guardiola is so domineering! The first transfer cost more than 2 billion euros, Simeone is second

Under Manchester's blue sky, a new football historical record was born. Guardiola became the first head coach in the history of world football to have a cumulative transfer investment of more than 2 billion euros. It can only be said that the famous Spanish coach is so domineering. He only coached three super giants in his career. From Barcelona's debut at its peak, then to Bayern "game" in the Bundesliga, and then to Manchester City, a native of the Premier League, today, the three teams won the Champions League and left his deep mark. At the same time, Guardiola also witnessed the benefits of modern football's "golden and Yuan era" that brought him, which is something that his old opponent Mourinho cannot compare.

Only announced in Manchester City that young goalkeeper James Trafford was signed back from Burnley, with the transfer fee of 27 million pounds (about 31.5 million euros). The 22-year-old England Hope Star will become Guardiola's new goal line strengthening option. It was this return transaction that made Guardiola's cumulative transfer expenditure in his career exceed the 2 billion euro mark, becoming the unprecedented number one person in football.

During the eight years Guardiola coached Manchester City, Blue Moon's transfer market operations have been highlighting almost every year. From Gallish's 117 million euros to heavyweight signings such as Gwadior, Ruben Dias, and Rodri, every player who joins is the "key puzzle" in his tactical territory. The strong capital of the UAE consortium allows Guardiola to build his own football empire without any scruples. As fans said, Guardiola has an endless transfer budget, which is not groundless. The six sky-high transfers at Manchester City are as follows.

Jack Gallish (117 million euros) - a versatile player in Guardiola's tactical system (has long been alive of his courage and has gradually become a marginal figure);

Joshko Gwadior (90 million euros) - core of the future central defender;

Ruben Dias (71 million euros) - a stabilizing force to stabilize the defense line;

Rodri (70 million euros) - one of the best midfielders in Europe and a hero in the Champions League final;

Omar Marmush (the specific amount has not been disclosed, about 60 million euros) - a new force on the offensive end; these players are part of Manchester City's unshakable luxury lineup in recent years, and behind it is an eight-year "bill blueprint".

On the list of cumulative transfer expenses in football, the following are the rankings of the top five, and Mourinho failed to enter.

Guardiola: 2 billion euros

Diego Simeone: 1.31 billion euros

Massimiliano Allegri: 1.2 billion euros

Thomas Tuchel: 1.19 billion euros

Antonio Conte: 1.16 billion euros

Guardiola almost continued to raise the "transfer ceiling" of modern football with his own strength. In contrast, even if other coaches from wealthy families spend a lot of money, they will find it difficult to catch up with his money-burning speed at Manchester City. What achievements have the Spanish coach achieved in his eight-year "bill blueprint" at Manchester City? 2022/23 season: Manchester City won the triple crown (Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League), realizing its dream of the Big Ear Cup; in the past five years, the Premier League: 4 times, the league dominance is undisputed, and the Premier League domestic trophy was poor, from the Champions League venue: from repeated failures to continuous championships, becoming a real European powerhouse. Looking at the top two to the top four, the cost is Conte's 1.16 billion euros, but they have one thing in common: their achievements are much worse than Guardiola. They really don't know how to spend money, the more championship trophys will be. There is no mention of Guardiola's championship trophy at Bayern and Barcelona, which is enough to sweep the top four.
