transfer record

Highest signing price

A transfer record is the highest fee paid for a player moving between sports clubs, typically in football (soccer).

The term usually refers to the all-time record: The club shattered the transfer record to sign him.

It can also be qualified by league, position, or era: a British transfer record, a record fee for a goalkeeper.

Breaking the transfer record signals a shift in market economics as much as a player's value.
