Sports Illustrated journalists compiled a ranking of the worst summer transfers in the English Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The first place was taken by German midfielder Florian Wirtz. He transferred to Liverpool for 125 million euros.
In second place was the Merseyside club's new player, wing-back Milos Kerkez. The top three was completed by Chelsea's winger Jamie Gittens.
Additionally, the worst summer transfers in the Premier League included Alexander Isak from Liverpool, James Trafford from Manchester City, Jean-Clair Todibo and Mads Hermansen from West Ham, Anthony Elanga from Newcastle, and Tyreho Barry from Everton. Despite gaining significant attention during the summer transfer window, these players failed to deliver the expected results.
Therefore, their transfers are considered unsuccessful for their teams. This ranking can serve as an example for players and clubs to make better decisions in the future.
Premier League clubs should pay attention not only to high transfer fees but also to the player's adaptation to the team and effectiveness during summer transfers.
