I don’t think that is quite right. I thought I had read most expensive striker or something but is Ronaldo a striker? He’s definitely older than Woodsy, but do they mean only between prem clubs? Or what?siac

Turns out he’s the most expensive premier league transfer ever for a player aged 30 or over.
Wow that's a crazy stat. Of course there is some bias towards players in recent years as I assume the average/mean fee is likely going up season on season too.
One of the biggest English papers (who I will not link to, as I know many don't like them for good reasons) reported he is the most expensive 30+ year old transfer in English history. And a fourfourtwo article also has him listed as the most expensive transfer for a 30+ year old in England history, and the 10th most expensive transfer ever for a 30+year old world wide!
It makes me feel old, that 30 is considered old, ffs.
