And to think that midfield only accounted for 10.5 of that... I was surprised to see them so high..

Yeah, the irony is that many of players really adding onto aren't their main contributors.

I think only Buffon had an extremely high fee. I guess they do also have a lot that add up like Chiellini, Asamoah, Lichtsteiner, Tevez, Ogbonna, Bonucci, Morata, Pepe, Isla. . .



Another part of it though is probably that Juve was a main offender in causing the 1/2 ownership rule to be scrapped. They likely have a noteworthy percentage of those fees from buying 1/2 ownership of tons of promising young Serie A players.
