From Flop to Hit, Here Are Top 15 Most Expensive Transfers Between Premier League Clubs

4. Virgil van Dijk (£75m – Southampton to Liverpool, 2017) Hit

When Liverpool purchased defender Virgil van Dijk from Southampton in 2017, it set records for the highest money ever paid for a defender.

However, it would turn out to be a wise choice, as the Dutchman almost instantly transformed Liverpool’s defense into one that could contend for awards.

While at Anfield, he went on to win the Premier League, Champions League, Club World Cup, FA Cup, and EFL Cup. Well worth the money.
