Defending at the cost of everything: Guardiola spent over 800 million euros on 25 defenders at Man City

Manchester City have already completed the transfer of defender Marco Guehi from Crystal Palace for 23 million euros, for which only the formalization remains.
On this occasion, the English media played a little with statistics and calculated how many defenders have arrived at City since coach Pep Guardiola arrived at the club.
As is well known, in July this year it will be 10 years since Guardiola arrived at City from Bayern Munich, winning everything there was to win.

In these 10 years, Guardiola brought 25 defenders to City. According to the website provides, the transfer will take City's total spending to £1.93 billion since Guardiola's appointment - including over £700 million (€807 million) on defenders alone.
This figure is significantly more than other clubs from the traditional big six.
For comparison, Arsenal brought in 19 defenders, Chelsea 20, Tottenham 17, Manchester United 15 and Liverpool 10 in the same period, writes Goal.com.

As a reminder, since Guardiola took charge of the team, City have won six Premier League titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups, four EFL Cups and the Club World Cup.
The most expensive defenders bought by Guardiola are Josko Gvardiol (89 million euros), Ruben Dias (75 million euros) and Jon Stones (55 million euros). /Telegraph/
