The official says Remy is our record signing but describes the fee as "undisclosed".
Elsewhere it is reported as being an £8m deal.
Previously Granero has been described as our record signing, but I have seen as much as £9m being mentioned for him (not that I bought that - shades of Faurlin hype).
So what do we think Remy, Granero and other big buys at our club cost? Guess it doesn't matter to us the fans too much, but would be nice to be able to put into context our spending. I saw Harry making the point that actually Southampton spent a lot more than us in the close season and although we are paying a lot in wages, we didn't actually spend much on transfers in the summer - so reading between the lines he has told Fernandes he bought a pile of junk in the summer and now he has to spent serious money on good players.
