Ronaldo = 17m
Ferdinand = 6m, 35% of the record

I think our success rate with new signings is roughly 50%, which is actually not bad.

Especially when we often manage to more or less get our money back on the flops.

Another way is to do it as a percentage of our revenue.

Found this....

"As you can see, the most expensive, at the time, and by quite some margin, was Sergei Rebrov. His £11 million move from Dinamo Kiev was equivalent to nearly 23 percent of the club’s annual revenue that year.

Rebrov is followed by Les Ferdinand (19.4 percent) and Chris Armstrong (18 percent). In fourth is Lamela."

As for the hotspurhq article, it is really poor given that almost all of the transfer fees quote are wrong. It's like the author guessed (badly) every single one.

My thoughts exactly. Not the OP’s fault, just poor from the bloke who made the article he got it from

Actually I should have picked the incorrect valuations up, but didn't

Aurier 22 Mil
Toljan 6 Mil (to Dortmund after Levy bowed out)
Is that right??
Did Levy miss out on an absolute bargain??
Anyone know if this is true and how it happened?
