Sparta Prague paid €4.0m for Matyas Vojta. Against the club's own history of paying for forwards, that is the 2nd largest such fee on record.
| Player | From | Fee | Season |
|---|---|---|---|
| Albion Rrahmani | FC Rapid 1923 | €5.0m | 2024/25 |
| John Mercado | Avs FS | €3.0m | 2025/26 |
| Jan Kuchta | Loko Moscow | €2.5m | 2023/24 |
| Veljko Birmancevic | Toulouse | €2.3m | 2024/25 |
| Ermal Krasniqi | FC Rapid 1923 | €2.0m | 2024/25 |
| Jan Kuchta | Midtjylland | €2.0m | 2025/26 |
A club's own precedent is the only fair yardstick for whether a fee is a departure for it. A number that looks enormous league-wide can be routine for one buyer, and a modest one can be a record for another.
