The news comes in the wake of numerous other records that were broken this summer.

Raheem Sterling (£49m - Liverpool to Man City) became the most expensive Englishman in history while Anthony Martial (£36m - Monaco to man United) is now the world's most expensive teenager.

The most expensive transfer of the window was Kevin de Bruyne's £55m move from Wolfsburg to Manchester City.
