If you look at cumulative transfer fees, Di Maria has just replaced his new PSG team mate at the top of a pretty impressive list
We all know world class footballers don't come cheap. But even by the standards of the world's most expensive players, Angel Di Maria has proven to be a particularly pricey purchase.
When he signed for Man United, the £59.7m fee made him the most expensive player in British football history. Now that PSG have paid £46m to take him off United's hands, he is officially the most expensive footballer of all time.
Gareth Bale still holds the record for the highest single transfer fee (£85m), but in terms of TOTAL transfer fees, no player has had more money spent on them than the gangly Argentinian.
