GOAL ranks the 21 most disappointing signings of the Premier League season, including Manchester United misfit Mason Mount and Chelsea's club record flop Moises Caicedo.
There have been a host of transfer missteps in the English top-flight this term, but which stands out as the worst of all?
Premier League clubs shelled out just shy of £5 billion on new players across the two 2022-23 transfer windows as unprecedented new spending records were set, and that culture of excess only continued last summer. According to, a final outlay of £2.36bn was recorded when the summer market closed on September 1, which smashed the previous record mark by £440m - raising fears over an unsustainable future for the English top flight.
Profit and sustainability rules took centre stage in January after breaches from Everton and Nottingham Forest, both of whom ended up with point deductions, and the rest of the clubs in England's top division reacted, leading to a spike in loan deals and free transfers.
Some players haven't come even close to justifying their huge fees, while others have barely been worth the time and effort of chasing in the first place, and may not get another chance to prove themselves at Premier League level.has ranked the 21 most disappointing signings of the 2023-24 season below, starting with a Dutchman who has struggled to hit the ground running on Merseyside...
