Over the last few years, the amount of money spent by football clubs to sign a player has grabbed eyeballs of many.

Football is considered one of the best sports in the world. It is also considered as the most played and most watched sports, sitting just behind basketball. Hence, it generates a huge amount of revenue from various tournaments, tickets, merchandise and advertisements.
