Now that we explored the most expensive signings at Real Madrid; let’s turn to look at their European neighbor, PSG.

Take a look at their lavish deals…

Neymar JR – €222M (2017)

• Games Played: 173
• Goals: 118
• Assists: 75

Neymar’s transfer shocked the football world, setting a record-breaking fee. He delivered impressive stats but struggled with injuries, especially during crucial Champions League campaigns. Despite not achieving PSG’s European ambitions, his on-field performance made him one of Ligue 1’s most prolific players before his departure to Al-Hilal in 2023.

Kylian Mbappé – €180M (2018)

• Games Played: 308
• Goals: 256
• Assists: 61

Mbappé’s time at PSG solidified him as a global superstar and the club’s all-time top scorer. He contributed significantly to PSG’s domestic dominance, helping secure six Ligue 1 titles. However, PSG’s Champions League aspirations remained unfulfilled. In 2024, Mbappé made a high-profile move to Real Madrid.

Randal Kolo Muani – €95M (2023)

• Games Played: 8
• Goals: 3
• Assists: 0

Kolo Muani joined after a standout season in Germany. Though still early in his PSG tenure, he’s contributed a few goals in his initial games and aims to establish himself as a regular starter as he adapts to the league.

Achraf Hakimi – €68M (2021)

• Games Played: 84
• Goals: 9
• Assists: 12

The Moroccan right-back added much-needed defensive depth, becoming one of the most dependable figures on PSG’s right flank. Though not known for prolific scoring, his contributions in both attack and defense make him a valuable asset.

Gonçalo Ramos – €65M (2023)

• Games Played: 12
• Goals: 3
• Assists: 1

Ramos came with high expectations following his breakout at Benfica. Though he’s had a slow start in Ligue 1, his adaptability in PSG’s forward line hints at promising future contributions as he gains form and experience in Paris.

Another year and another billion dollars spent on players who, let’s be honest, could probably win a game of FIFA with their eyes closed.
