Uefa fears impact of Premier League spending on transfer market

Football issues correspondent Published 31 minutes ago Uefa believes "a clear two-speed system" is emerging in the transfer market as a result of the huge spending by Premier League clubs this summer.

In its latest European club talent and competition landscape report, European football's governing body laid bare just how dominant the transfer activity of English clubs has become.

Uefa's report said that the estimated €4.6bn (£4bn) spend by Premier League clubs is "larger than that of the next eight largest European countries combined".
