The expenditures of Paris Saint-Germain for new players are approaching an impressive limit.
It is estimated that the Ligue 1 team has already spent nearly 2 billion euros in this century.
Moreover, the Qatari billionaires took over the club only in early 2012 and by that time had already acquired well-known players.
The most expensive trio of players includes Achraf Hakimi (66.5 million), Kylian Mbappe (180 million), and Neymar (222 million euros).
