This isn't comprehensive. Doesn't include players classed as members of Leeds U23s for instance. Plus Ekuban seems to be in a grey area. It also doesn't include fees where they were credited as undisclosed, but I'm sure those can be filled in.

Those type of sites are rarely correct
For instance they’ve missed likes of Diaz Rey and machuda.

They haven't. As I said, they have a separate page for the youth team

This includes Rey, Machuca, Diaz, and even Wilks and Kitching just for you, Kebab.

Yes a scattergun approach concentrating on quantity rather than quality. It wouldn't be so bad if it was on free transfers or 100-300k but some of these signings were for 7 figure sums and on 3 and 4 year contracts (De Bock, Grot?, Cibicki).

Historically the players we get in (some before Orta's time)on say 2.5-4m (Wood,Roofe, Jansson, Roberts) with that bit more quality have done well.The clues from that were there before he embarked on that strategy.

I would imagine in this day and age it is probably the case for most clubs that more signings fail than come off but 2 in 20 is beyond that sort of benchmark.

Couldn't have made that much as we couldn't even afford 1.3 for Ajayi.

So no one has a listing of players sold, how much for and what we paid for them?

Are you on the transfer committee? Did MB ask for him and when you approached his club y”all got sticker shot and said “oh my word, we can’t pay that much?”

Are you defending the scattergun approach?

Huh?

I’m asking if anyone has this data.

Turning over 30 or so players in 2 years is never good!
