It seems that the triumph of "Monaco" in the French championship will definitely pay off, because the club's transfer system is working perfectly.
Just this summer, the team led by Leonardo Jardim has already earned 165 million euros from transfers, and this may not be the end.
The latest person to contribute to this result is Benjamin Mendy, who today officially became the most expensive defender of all time by moving to "Manchester City" for 57 million euros.
The 23-year-old left-back, who was playing for "Monaco" just a year ago, was bought from "Marseille" for 13 million euros.
The same "citizens" club also paid 48 million euros for right winger Bernardo Silva, and defensive midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko added to the ranks of London's "Chelsea" for 40 million. These players cost "Monaco" 16 and 8 million euros respectively.
The strongest team in "Ligue 1" also left for smaller amounts Valere Germain, Abdou Diallo, Nabil Dirar and Corentin Jean.
Meanwhile, only Youri Tielemans and Terence Kongolo arrived in Monaco itself, so the club still has 100 million euros to invest in new transfers. On the other hand, perhaps this money will also go towards the development of young players, who will once again be sold for record amounts in the future.
The most expensive player on the planet would definitely be the 18-year-old striker Kylian Mbappe, but all offers for him have been rejected so far. Football giants are also concerned about the futures of Fabinho and Thomas Lemar, but they have less chances to leave the team.
