English clubs topped the table for spending on international transfer fees with an outlay of USD 349.5 million, followed by Italy with <a href="https://punchng.com/">USD 113.6 million</a>.</p>
<p>In the women’s game, there was a dramatic 42.8% increase in the number of transfers during this year’s January registration period compared to January 2021. The total stood at 257 transfers, a new all-time high surpassing the pre-pandemic levels of January 2020 by almost 40%.</p>
<p><strong>Key findings include:</strong></p>
<p>3,534 international transfers involving male professional players took place during the January registration period – 28.0% more than last year.</p>
<p>International transfer fees amounted to USD 1.03 billion in the men’s professional game – almost back to the levels recorded before the onset of the pandemic.</p>
